Life is difficult for people in the Armed Forces. It is also difficult for their families, especially women who are married to Armed Forces personnel. Recently we lost 13 Air Force Pilots to a crash. While the rest of the country does mourn the passing away of its soldiers, it is their families who have to live with that loss.

Garima Abrol, however, decided to honour her husband’s martyrdom in an unforgettable way – she is set to step into his shoes and join the Indian Air Force. Author Swapnil Pandey recently put out a post about Garmia – wife of Samir Abrol who was martyred in Mirage 2000 fighter place crash this year in February. This is what the post reads:re is a special metal Armed Forces wives are made off. While it takes years to make a soldier and create a whole legion of warriors for the nation. It takes exteamly special women to be in relationship with these men bound by the uniform first.Remember Mrs Garima Abrol, wife of squadron leader Samir Abrol who martyred in Mirage2000 fighter plane crash while test flying it at HAL Airport this February?

Her last Instagram Post said “my tears are still not dry and I loved sending my husband to serve the nation with a cup of tea and head held high.” she also mentioned no one cries when they leave but the family. It does not make you a celebrity. Media covers it for a day and drops it and how it takes decade to make a fighter pilot.”
