Celebrate Armed Force Veterans Day on 14th January

Since 2017, 14th January has been celebrated as Armed Force Veterans Day in India. It is celebrated in the honour of Field Marshal KM Cariappa OBE, the first Indian Commander-in-chief of the Indian Armed Forces. KM Cariappa retired on 14th January 1953, and hence the event falls on this day.

One can talk for days about KM Cariappa’s bravery and wit. He is one of the only two Indian Army officers to hold the five-star rank field marshal, the distinction he shares with Sam Mankeshaw. He was the first Indian to enrol in Staff College in Quetta, first Indian to command a battalion, and one of the first two Indians to be selected to train at the prestigious Imperial Defence College in Camberley. His service to the nation didn’t stop after retirement, as he founded Indian Ex-Servicemen League (IELS) in 1964, to promote the welfare of Indian veterans. In his career spanning three decades, KM Cariappa stood as a pillar of bravery and wits. 

Indian Armed Force Veterans Day is celebrated across the country to commemorate the sacrifices made by our veterans. Last year, a celebration was held at Manekshaw Center, Delhi Cantt, in the presence of Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral R.Hari Kumar. Numerous such events are held across the country. 

While these events are being held, you as a citizen can also make contributions to the welfare of the veterans on this auspicious occasion. Here are some of the NGOs actively working that you can support on this day:

Sainik Welfare Organisation (SWO)

Created by ex-servicemen, SWO dedicates itself to the cause of making our veterans financially independent. They provide employment opportunities to the ones who have fought for our country and provide housing services for them. It also helps the widows of our soldiers. 

Lakshya Foundation

Started by some selfless volunteers, this body organises events dedicated to tell the tales of the bravery of our Indian soldiers. They use their platforms to create awareness and empathy for our armed forces. They also shed light on the plight of soldiers and their gallant sacrifices.

Veer Nari Shakti Foundation

The battle is not only fought on the fields, but also in the hearts of the family members, who have bravely sent their family to fight for our country. Veer Nari Shakti aims to provide relief to such families. Since the last 21 years, Veer Nari Shakti Foundation has been an exemplary NGO which has supported hundreds of families who have lost their loved ones in service to their country.

Paraplegic Rehabilitation Center

Most of the time, our soldiers sustain injuries which scar them for life. Their lives become distraught in such crucial circumstances. Paraplegic Rehabilitation Centre provides relief and medical care to such soldiers who have been wounded to make sure that we get sound sleep at night. 

Vasantharatna Foundation of Arts (VRFA)

VRFA was started by Subhashini Vasanth, in tribute to her husband, Late Colonel Vasanth Venugopal, who was martyred while fighting insurgents at Jammu and Kashmir. VRFA identifies the families of martyrs and their needs, provides scholarships, job placement, legal counselling and vocational training to the family members of Indian soldiers. 

So, this 14th of January, hurl your tiranga and celebrate the bravery and grit of our jawaans serving in the borders, and make sure to look after the ones who have fought previously for our peace and security.

Come on, let me see

[18 May 2022] What would Ren do if he caught MC getting off to him (either sneaking into their apartment or even watching through webcam) 😳🙈

*inhale* 📢📢 HOOOOO 📢 BOY 📢📢👀👀

If y'all got freaky previously, then Ren would shamelessly jump in to help you out. Just... don't ask how he got into your apartment. I mean, he /definitely/ tried knocking on your door, but you mustn't have heard him. And you /definitely/ left it unlocked on accident, so he had no choice but to let himself in and make sure you were okay. And he /definitely/ heard you crying out (his name!!!) once he entered your hallway. How was he supposed to know it was a cry of pleasure and not pain? ...At least, that's what he'll tell you once he's done rearranging your insides.

If Ren was watching this play out from your webcam, however, then he'd immediately call you up and feign ignorance before leading the conversation towards his desired path ("Say, you sound kind of breathless... Was I interrupting something?" "Do you need some help, Angel? I don't mind." "Were you missing me? You're so cute~"). By then, he'd have a [fleshlight] in hand and your voice in his ear.

If ya'll didn't woohoo previously, then he'd just watch everything unfold from behind your door/his computer screen as he unzips his pants and relieves himself alongside you. He'd try to match his strokes with your own so that he can pretend it was /him/ who was making you feel good — and if he closes his eyes, he can almost see it too. He doesn't though, because he wants to take in every single movement and sound you make. Ren would also try and hold back from coming until you do, but that thought is thrown out the window the moment he finds out that you're getting off to /him/ specifically. If you call out his name or reveal one of his missing cardigans or something, then he's done for :')
