Such are the business oriented lives of ours these days that the title of the blog may make you believe that I am referring to a company and its market share, and so on. You are absolutely wrong there. I am referring to the high seas, beyond limits, beyond easy measurements, beyond simplistic control. The about to attack the eastern coast typhoon should prove the limitless might of the sea. That is not the occasion though. The blog is a celebration of the navy day tomorrow.
In a way, inevitable it is that I should remember the navy day as my almost twin brother is a merchant navy guy. In fact, the navy, whether merchant or the national is proof of how human intelligence used creatively, can create wonders. On the high seas, with the deep waters and the infinite skies as the only companions, a small little human vehicle can cut across huge, horrible, high rise waves to reach the shores successfully is a tale told by infinite intelligence, imagination and integrity.
Be it the erstwhile mast ships or the majestic ships today, the navy proves how human intelligence used creatively can navigate the mighty measureless seas. Hence the need to celebrate the navy day. During the COVID era, too, the merchant navy ships scaled the high seas. The omicron suspect from Dombivali proves this irrefutable fact. Covid could stop the world, not the merchant navy. The coast guard duty of the navy is so centrally important that 26/11establishes it irrefutably. Of the three arms of the army and their duties, Navy's is the toughest, but it has neither the glamour of the air force nor the glory of the army. Time we wake up to the stalwart contributions by the navy. Happy Navy Day!
