TEZPUR, June 24: The 107 Regular Course of the Indian Military Academy (IMA) commemorated 25 years of commissioned service to the nation on Tuesday, marking a significant milestone in their journey of duty, camaraderie, and sacrifice.
The silver jubilee celebrations began with a solemn wreath-laying ceremony at the National War Memorial in New Delhi, where officers of the course paid tribute to their 11 fallen comrades who laid down their lives in the line of duty. The ceremony was attended by coursemates and family members, who honoured the memory of the brave officers with deep respect and pride.
Following the tribute, a commemorative banquet was organised, bringing together serving and retired officers of the 107 Regular Course. The gathering served as a moment of reflection on their shared experiences in uniform and reinforced their enduring commitment to the core values of the Indian Army—duty, honour, and country.
Commissioned on June 24, 2000, the 107 Regular Course has played a vital role in strengthening the Indian Army’s operational capabilities over the past two and a half decades. Officers from the course have served in key leadership positions across various arms and services, contributing to operations in diverse and challenging environments.
The silver jubilee celebration was not only a tribute to their professional achievements but also a reaffirmation of the strong bonds forged through years of dedicated service to the nation.
