Payal spent her childhood watching Indian Military Academy cadets. “None of my family were in the armed forces. But in Dehradun, every other person is in the army. I had an inclination towards the army right from my childhood,” she says.

“I had a dream of marching in the Republic Day Parade. After graduation, I kept applying for the army, but I was rejected by 5 Services Selection Boards. I did not lose hope. I came to Gurgaon and joined a multinational company. I worked for a-year-and-a-half there.”

“I kept trying for the SSB. I came to know about naval recruitment and applied in 2012. I was selected and my dream came true. I was part of the Republic Day Parade,” says Payal.

“But something was missing. I thought the navy would be adventurous. I was confined to desk work. I was doing the same thing I did while working for that firm. When the opportunity to be part of an all-women boat came up,” she remembers, “I jumped with joy.”
