PERSONAL LIFE:

            I put this at the first, because it is this that will reflect how a commando is. It is his personal life that should be well taken care of, and well inspected before being absorbed in to forces. As for a good commando his personal life should reflect his sense of responsibility. He should be obeying the rules and laws set by the respective governments of his country. He should have lot of patience and enough courage to die in the field of operations. The best commando would be he who does not have any blood relatives. I say this because wherever a relation exists, there will be an automatic sense of responsibility to protect them and live for them. Such an attachment should be prevented if possible. I don’t mean that people with family will not be eligible to become a commando but I mean to say that it’s better advised that a commando does not have a family. So here comes a difference between an ideal and a real commando. An ideal commando should strictly not have any family, where as in the case of a real one it is optional. I mention about families because a commando is always entitled to dangers, may be to himself or his family. He should in no way be let down because of his family. Whatever as mentioned an ideal commando should strictly be an orphan. He should have no sentimental tie-ups with anyone. Sentimentality should be considered as a clear sign of weakness in an ideal commando. The operations of a commando are very demanding and hence there should be no weakness in them.

 

            Coming to other things about his personal life, he should be a true patriot of his country. This should be clearly indicative as this is a very important factor required. This is to ensure that he does not go rogue. A command should be in such a mindset that whatever be the decision taken by the government of his country, it would be on the best interests of its subjects. He should have complete faith in his government. Nonetheless the government should train them to believe its objectives. A commando should also believe that he is born to be one. This lets him to be powerful enough for his duties. As a commando, one should have all the above mentioned traits.

 

TRAINING REQUIRED:

            This is the most important part of a commando’s life. Though I said that they are not made but are born, a good training makes them finer than what they were born for. These men should be made almost invulnerable. In their field of operation they should be invincible to all attacks. Also in their field, they should be as invisible as a ghost for the sake of survival. For an ideal commando, he should be able to tackle even a 1000 soldiers. Exactly what I mean is that, these men should be clearly the hand of death. Each commando should be an army himself. Let us see the essential training required for a commando.

 

A commando’s training should be divided in to 3 phases: THE BASICS, THE ADVANCED COURSE and THE MENTAL TRAINING.

 

THE BASICS:

            The following are the basic trainings that should be imparted in a commando. This training should last for 1.5 yrs. The right time for inducting a commando is between the age group 19-22. At this age they have full maturity and also will have maximum power and strength and will be the right age for moulding.

1.       The first and the foremost requirement of any special force is the stamina to fight for longer times. This can be only accomplished by heavy and longer running workouts. So to start off with, a commando should be able to run 15-20 Km. He should initially at the start of the training be made to run for a min of 5 km and then should be gradually increased to 15-20 km. They should have undergone various running exercises to make them fit and give them enough stamina. These commandos at the end of their training should be able to run with a 20 Kg backpacks.

2.      The commandos should be well taught about all the state of the art weapons. They should be trained in using all small arms to the medium ones and should also be imparted training in heavy arms. The commandos should be trained to change the magazines in few seconds, even while moving and rolling. They should be well versed with the names of all weapons and should know every weapon’s basics. They must be trained to identify the weapons by their firing sound. They must be well trained in shooting from all angles and should be experts of one shot one kill operations. They should be trained to shoot precisely while running, jumping and even from underwater.

People (those who follow my blog), I'm extremely sorry that I'm unable to update my blog continuously due to tight academic schedule. But I'll do my level best to continue my work if at all with a short pause.

THE COMMANDO MANUAL PART- I

Hello people (now it’s really confirmed that people are reading my posts)...

           As I have mentioned in my previous post about this one, I would like to mention once again that this one is taken from nowhere (except for the figures at necessary places).... This post entirely is from my own opinion on how a commando should be....

Now let’s get to our point......

            Before that I would like to have my disclaimer: I'm not responsible for any dire consequence that this post or any other post in this blog causes upon you or your surroundings by you..... The blog is entirely for informative purposes only....

 

Coming to our story:

            I would like to divide the entire elite team of men in to 4. They are the 

• Military special forces
• Spies
• Covert assassins
• Military assassins

            Now here I would bring a COMMANDO in the first category. Yes, a commando is a special military unit (let him be of the army, the navy or (not usually) the air force) personnel. 

            For all the people who don’t know who or what a commando is (and also for those who have a small idea) let me introduce you to whom a commando is. A commando or a kommando, as in some languages, is a person who is specially trained to perform behind the enemy lines duty or put in simple terms who performs tasks which a normal soldier cannot do. This particular word is said to have originated from the Portuguese (COMANDO) meaning command. So we can say that these are the people who command the war or a battle.

            Yes, i give so much importance to these people because, they have the very potential to change the course of a war as they wish. Really, no one will easily understand this. You’ll know why i say this as you read further.

 Who can become a commando:

            A commando is not made, he is born. The statement means that it is an inborn quality within someone. Only he will become a commando, who has something more than passion for it. It is a fire that should be burning within. The mental makeup of a commando should be such that he is ready to sacrifice anything in his life for the sake of the country he is employed by. A commando would surely be seen separate in a crowd.

 Qualities expected in a commando:

            The qualities expected in a commando are many. This is because the job requires him to have all these on the question of survival. Since the commandos are elite men and not many make it to the position, no one can afford to lose these men. So they are required to have certain qualities embedded in them.

            I would always say this, “All elite men are not made but are born”. So a commando is to be born that way. I’ll further categorize the qualities of a commando into the following:

v  Personal life

v  Special abilities

v  Training required

v  Operations involved

 Also i would separate a commando in to two. They are the IDEAL COMMANDOS and REAL COMMANDOS. I would describe all the necessary qualities of each division as we move on. The qualities required are mostly similar in both but for in certain cases which are highlighted below.

I'M BACK

Hi people... (if at all i have any blog followers)

If u sensed that the title of this post had a BILLA effect, then rest assured that my return will be with a bang (at least i hope and better than billa of course)....

Reallyyyyyy a very long time since my last post....

It's not that i did not find any time to post, but just that i felt lazy and was bereft of ideas coupled with "will-anyone-read-my-blog" kind of fears. But finally i overcame all these and decided to continue with the blog irrespective of my fears. I'll attribute the main reason of restarting the blog to my good friend krithika, who asked me to continue with it. Also since everyone is anticipating my return ( a pure assumption) lemme give u a nice post forward.

As usual and as always its going to be something related to military....

My topic for the new post is "THE COMMANDO MANUAL"...

This one is not something that has been taken from any website (though i may make a few references with wikipedia for the exact figures)....

It'll purely reflect the amount of my understanding with the field operatives and their should be life..... This is purely for the educative purpose only..... I'm surely not responsible for any dire effect that this may cause on you or around you because of you. ( Though ill surely have a role in it, if it turns out to be good)...

Coming to my point, I, as you people know (if not, get to know now), always had an obsession for the military. I have analyzed many of these people and have formulated in my mind what i'm going to present forward to you now.
