Discipline, working with well educated team, work culture, job security, honesty, skill development, good salary, and above all serving the nation with pride are few unforgettable things for me during my tenure of service. How ever I will be completing my last bond for serving the nation being in Air Force on 30 Nov 2022, which is unextendable due to Gov restrictions on retirement age at 57 yrs.
