| Vishal Kotkar | Re: my life at nda The National Defence Academy NDA is the Joint Services academy of the Indian Armed Forces, where cadets of Army, Navy and Air Force train together for three years. It is located at Khadakwasla near Pune, Maharashtra. The first thing every candidate experiences is the haircut which becomes his identity to the outer world. All cadets are allotted with a bicycle, an academy number and a Squadron which is basically becomes his home for the duration of his training. Each cadet is given a room of his own. The cabins can be inspected anytime and so keeping things in order becomes second nature for the cadet. There are 18 Squadrons which are named as Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hunter, India, Juliet, Kilo, Lima, Mike, November, Oscar, Panther, Quebec and Romeo. Battalion No. 1, No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4 Battalions have four squadrons each (in alphabetical order) and No. 5 Battalion has two squadrons. Each Squadron has approximately 100 to 120 cadets divided almost equally in 6 terms. Training A cadet is welcomed in NDA by Joint training team (JTT) through the two months long ‘Orientation Capsule’ during which, he is conditioned to toughen up mentally and physically. Cadets are imparted a blend of outdoor and indoor training. Outdoor training is carried out in the hilly and dense green terrain around the NDA campus. Indoor training includes theoretical and practical training. In Academics, the common subjects of the three services are covered. These include weapon handling, map reading, military law, history and organization of each service. Analysis of military campaigns and operations are also done. Debates, public speaking competitions, seminars and interactions with civil institutes are regularly organized. Till fifth term all cadets undergo same training while the sixth term emphasis on service training. |
