2. PRAYER
Dear lord, I'm just a sailor
A Protector of our land.
A servant called to battle
When my country takes a stand.
I pray for strength and courage
And a heart that will forgive.
For peace and understanding
In a world for all to live.
My family’s prayers are with me,
No matter where I roam.
Please listen when I’m lonely
And return me safely home.
amen
11. Indian air force
The Indian Air Force is the air arm of
the Indian armed forces. Its primary
responsibility is to secure
Indian airspace and to conduct Aerial
warfare during a conflict. It was officially
established on 8 October 1932 as an
auxiliary air force of the British Empire and
the prefix Royal was added in 1945 in
recognition of its services during World War
II. After India became independent from
the United Kingdom in 1947, the Royal
Indian Air Force served the Dominion of
India, with the prefix being dropped when
India became a republic in 1950. Since
independence, the IAF has been involved
in four wars with neighboring Pakistan and
one with the People's Republic of China.
Other major operations undertaken by the
IAF include Operation Vijay – the
annexation of Goa.
