Everyone who has their parents/grandparents who have been a part of the Armed Forces . Will identify with the various things that are associated with Army  families . There is something different in the way all the defence kids are brought up which makes them totally different from others. Also the traditions and the upbringing makes not only the men but also the families different .Here is a look into some of the few things which sets us apart.

1. When you have to go for Wedding or Some Function

There are times when you are Invited to some marriage Function at 19.00 hrs . To all the faujis it means exactly 19.00 hrs and hence Faujis can never be late, they make it a point to reach there atleast five minutes in advance. To be greeted by just waiters and the decoration staff . Well Atleast the value of time is know to them alone.

5. The Parties in the Defence

Well what can one say about the parties of Faujis . One is visiting generally the S.O.I and D.S.O.I. on all the days and is a part of the fun and frolic there . With so many defence kids around one does not feel out of place . And To add that there is always one Uncle who tends to crack jokes and  has that hidden talent in him (be it singing or Dancing)  making you feel extra special. And not to forget the ever favorite Tambola and the SNOW BALL that follows suit.
