Indian Parachute Regiment is one of the most prestigious regiment around the world, every Indian defence aspirant and serving member wish to join the regiment and wear the iconic maroon beret, but it’s not easy to earn the prestigious title of “Airborne Soldier”. 

Indian Parachute Regiment has the largest share of the Special Forces of India in its fold and is generally known as the Indian Para Special forces.

Let’s talk about the Badges earned by our Para Commandos or Para (SF) :

  1. BALIDAAN BADGE: The special forces, which form part of the Parachute Regiment, have a distinct insignia called Balidaan, which has a commando dagger pointed downwards, with upward-extending wings extending from the blade and a scroll superimposed on the blade with “Balidaan” inscribed in Devanagari; the whole in silver metal on an upright red plastic rectangle. Only the Para Commandos are allowed to wear the Balidaan Badge.

3. PARA WINGS: There remains a single airborne brevet: an open parachute in white, with light blue wings extended from it, the whole on a gray-green drab background. (Some other variants have existed for ceremonial/mess uniforms, e.g., with gold wired wings on a maroon flannel, the same on a scarlet background for the PBG on their ceremonial tunics. This was formerly worn on the upper right sleeve but since 1975 appears above the right chest pocket and name tag.

4. REGIMENTAL BADGE: The regimental badge for the Parachute Regiment is an open parachute, partially behind a circle with the word “PARACHUTE” at the top and a scroll at the bottom with the word “REGIMENT”; wings are spread out from the circle, and a dagger is superimposed on the parachute and upper portion of the circle; the whole in silver metal.

6. JUMP INDICATOR WINGS: There is a small enameled version (white parachute with blue, yellow, or red wings) worn on the left pocket as Jump Indicator Wings (for 25, 50 or 100 descents, respectively). The small enameled badge has now been replaced by a brass badge with stars at the bottom of the parachute, with one star denoting 25 jumps, two stars 50 and three stars 100.

7. DIVING BADGE: Some of the trainees are also taught specialized mode of infiltration and exfiltration, either by air (combat freefall) or sea (combat diving). Those opting for the combat diving earns the Diving badge. The badge speaks that you are ready to take any mission either on land or sea. Diving badges are common in SF as they have a diving component in every squadron/company.

8. COMMENDATION CARD: All three branches of the military issue Commendation Cards, which are badges awarded for “individual acts of gallantry or distinguished service or devotion to duty performed either in operation or non-operational areas which are not of a sufficiently high order to qualify for a higher gallantry award or for which the higher award is inappropriate. The award will be for a specific act of bravery or distinguished or special service. The award will not be made posthumously.” All three branches issue Commendations Cards at the level of the highest officer (Chief of the Army Staff, Chief of the Naval Staff and Chief of the Air Staff). The awards at lower levels seem to vary between services.

AFSB INTERVIEW STUDY MATERIAL

Many of you are going to face the AFSB interview, don’t get confused, SSB and AFSB are same, AFSB stands for Air Force Selection Board, SSB interview conducted by Indian Air Force is called AFSB interview. If you have cleared your AFCAT which is a written exam, you will face AFSB, which is a 5-day interview procedure. If you are aware of what SSB / AFSB interview is, then you can skip reading this part, but if you are not aware of the AFSB procedure, start with getting an idea of what all you are going to face at AFSB.

Candidates who have failed the CPSS/PABT in an earlier attempt or a Flight Cadet suspended from flying training at Air Force Academy will not be eligible to apply.

How To Prepare For AFSB Interview?

Now you have enough time, you must be thinking how should I prepare for the AFSB interview. Now coming to this, there are many ways to prepare for the SSB interview, some of them are FREE and some of them are not. We are going to mention both and you can decide accordingly. 

FREE:

  • There are many articles and website you will find with free resources, for example, the one you are reading now, you will SSB experiences of the recommended candidates, most of them do acknowledge that the website like SSBCrack has helped them somewhere, though few of them did take guidance from other sources as well. We won’t suggest you to totally depend on something like SSBCrack, of course, you will find some FREE stuff here but we would suggest you reach out to other sources and see how you like them.

Below are the must-read articles for you if you are going to attempt AFSB interview

Recommended Success Stories:

Why read them? well, these are the experiences of candidates who have cleared the AFSB interview, it doesn’t mean they are different from you, it’s just what you want to achieve, they have already achieved. You will learn a lot by going through their experience, just take the experience and not the guidance.

PAID:

Coming to paid resources, something where you have to burn a lot of money and that is an SSB coaching institute. There are many SSB coaching institutes, some of them are good, they take care of candidates and they should, they don’t do it for FREE. On the other hand, there are coaching institutes which are a waste of your time and money.  Recently one of our followers came back to us and told us about one assessor who is talking bad about us and for similar websites and assessors, the irony is, we only suggested that candidate to follow him/her thinking they are good. In the recent days, there are so many assessors (retired) are coming out in social media, YouTube and everywhere and they are really doing a good job by sharing their knowledge to help candidates. Unfortunately, some of them talk how good they are by letting someone else down, they say others are making fool out of aspirants in the name of coaching and they should join them instead of such coaching institutes, what funny here is, they have to talk bad about someone else just to make sure candidates join them. AVOID such people who talk bad about others to show how great they are, they might be good, but such people are called hypocrites, in the end, they are also doing the same thing, they take money from you and give coaching, Good or Bad you decide. 

Remember these things before joining a coaching academy:

  • First, decide, do you need SSB coaching? or Training as many of them claim. The best way to find out if you need coaching/training or not is to spend some time with a candidate who had around 7-10 attempts, doesn’t matter if he is recommended or not. Tell him what all you know about SSB, ask him to give suggestions on your responses. He will easily judge, how better you know SSB. Here the whole point is how good you know about SSB interview and why the various tests are conducted at SSB, what do they want to see in you, why it takes 5 days, what are 15 OLQs? These are basic questions, it has nothing to do with how you will respond at SSB, but if you do not have a basic idea of what SSB is and what all you have to face during 5 days, you certainly need a good coaching/training. Because if you do not understand the syllabus of an exam, you can not prepare for it.
  • Always try to join an academy which is well established, with a good number of assessors, infrastructure, and results of course. Do not join anyone who talks bad about others to show his or her greatness, do not join people who give a guarantee of 100% results. This is impossible, no academy and assessor can give 100% assurance and claims your success.
  • If you have made up your mind, do the background check, visit their websites, look who are the assessors, do they have different assessors for Psychology, GTO, and PI. If not, DO NOT JOIN THEM.
  • Not all coaching academies have proper GTO ground, ignore such academies. When you pay for something, you should also get the best facility and infrastructure.
  • Make sure the coaching is affordable and they provide study material and one to one support.
  • If you are also eligible for flying, make sure your coaching academy provides latest CPSS tests practice.

Note:

  1. Just because someone got recommended after taking coaching from somewhere doesn’t mean you will also get the same result. If 100 people go to a coaching institute, it is most likely that at least one guy will be recommended out of 100.
  2. By taking coaching it is not guaranteed that you will be recommended, if you don’t take any coaching, there are still chances that you will clear the interview. But without any preparation for SSB, you will surely fail.
  3. We always suggest you prepare for the SSB, a good coaching institute will always help you to prepare. At SSB you are alone and you have to perform.

We are waiting for your success story, all the best!

  • Check the document list and make sure you have all the required documents. If you do not have it then you must apply for the document in well advance, as the preparation of any document (like provisional certificate etc.) may take time.
  • Get the reservation done for the date you have chosen for. For some dates reservations might not be open yet, but don’t forget to put a reminder and get the reservations done as soon as the booking opens.
  • Check up for the places to stay at that place in case you plan to stay there apart from the scheduled days and in case you don’t have anybody living there.
  • Decide upon a good coaching if you plan to attend one. Take a feedback check from the pages of the coaching on Facebook and do a full research on it before joining. You can look for different aspects like the staff, facility, after coaching support etc.

Recommended For Indian Army In 13th Attempt

RECOMMENDED FOR INDIAN ARMY IN 13TH ATTEMPT

Hello Friends! My name is BHANU PRATAP from YAMUNANAGAR, HARYANA. It all started on 17 May 2013 when I gave my first attempt at Indian Army TGC 117 entry in Allahabad where I got Conference out and realised that real journey and struggle of my life has just started. Then I gave TGC, SSC(T), SSC-GS(X) Navy SSBs and my passion to be an Indian Army Officer with 12 attempts kept me going via introspecting each time about myself and improvising little things which went missing in those earlier attempts. I gave a total of 13 attempts out of which 7 Screen outs, 5 Conference outs and 1 Recommended.

Someone once told me “You will not get anything you deserve before time”. And, my time came after a long wait of 4 years 3 months 7 days on 24 August 2017 when I got to wear that “+(plus)” Chest number in my 13th Attempt of TGC-126. It was worth waiting for this period of time. I got my TGC-126 call letter for Allahabad and selected the date 19 August 2017 for reporting. It was a different feel this time to touch the Allahabad Railway station for 8th time.

  1. OIR & PPDT (Screening Test) (Day-1) :

206 people reported on 20th August 2017 morning at SSB, out of which 39 people got screened in and the “Chest number 1” was me getting screened in this time after being getting screened out in previous two attempts.

Current Affairs questions will be from last 5-7 months (for AFCAT, NDA, CDS, TA)
  1. Psychology Test (Day-2) :

On Day-2, Psychology tests got started with TAT where I was able to write all the 12 stories within given time. I put up very basic ideas in the stories from day-to-day life and real scenarios rather than putting up any rocket science perceptions.

After that, the test which puts the nerves out of every aspirant came, called WAT. In WAT, I kept the basic approach going with the flow of ideas coming to my mind. I did not try to put up a great sentence rather I just put the thoughts coming straight to my mind on the paper. I completed all 60 words in time.

Then came the SRT test, which is my favorite test among all, where we have to read 60 situations and write appropriate solution accordingly on the paper within 30 minutes. I was able to complete 46 SRTs within given time which was enough according to my writing speed. I gave the answer to each of them by just putting myself into that particular situation and getting the result out my way. So, just be basic and realistic in giving the SRT answers.

The last but not the least, SELF DESCRIPTION test, which every individual has its own way of writing about what your parents, boss, colleagues/friends, you think about yourself and what you want to become in future. I completed the test within 15 minutes provided.

Friends! Just trust the system as the overall approach to perform this test is to just give out the first thought of imagination/idea coming to your mind positively as it shows your real nature/behavior to the Psychologist which is further being seen by the IO & GTO in different ways and the most important thing to be noted down here is that all the three tests (Psychology tests, Interview and GTO tasks) must match to your personality in one way.

TGC recommended

  1. Interview (IO):

After my Psych test got over, I was called immediately by the President of the board for my interview as I was Chest no. 1 and I was told to sit and wait in the waiting room until my chest number blinks on the LED screen which is the indication to go to the interviewer room. I didn’t even wait for a minute and I was called for the interview. 6th time I was sitting in front of the interviewer and this time the change in me was zero nervousness. The interviewer grilled me with 4 rapid fire rounds of questions, each of it consisting 20 questions plus counter questions. And in every rapid fire round, he asked me one common question “Do you have any regrets in life?” for which I answered every time that “I do not have any regrets in my life for anything”.

Then, he asked me some neighboring countries news which I answered him according to my knowledge. He also asked me some GK questions which I answered “I do not know” and some technical questions also which I was not able to answer to the point. So, the interviewer tried to put me in some stress saying “Come on Bhanu! You should know these basic things as you are a techie guy” for which I said “Sir! I will get back to you on this next time”. And he was continuously watching my expressions, hand movements and feet movements.

After that, he asked me some questions regarding my work profile in IT and some basic details of my games and sports and in last he said that “Bhanu! Do not get anxious about your results and enjoy the time being here in SSB board till you are here and Enjoy the tasks in GTO tomorrow” which gave me a weird feeling that somewhere he is not happy with my answers or something. He closed my file in front of me with a heavy sound like he is not happy and my interview lasts for only 20 minutes. I thought it didn’t go well as he told me to leave after 20 minutes only where other candidates were accessed for more than 30 minutes to 90 minutes.

 

  1. GTO (Day-3 & Day-4):

GTO tasks have always been my favorite since the first attempt as the ground gives a positive feeling to me and somewhat strengthen my mind. The day started with two group discussions where I initiated in the first GD and spoke for a minute and then presented the ideas later within.

In GPE (Group planning exercise), I was not able to complete the solution on the paper due to less time was given but I presented the basic ideas within the discussion. In the PGT & HGT, I was leading from the front with basic ideas and approaches to move ahead and also appreciated other’s ideas as well and implemented them successfully to complete the tasks. And then Snake race and Lecturette went well for me.

On day-4, I was called last in the Command Task and given 15 minutes to solve which I completed in a minute. In Individual Obstacles, I completed 12 obstacles in 3 minutes and in FGT, I also performed well and gave the ideas with the group.

Overall, my GTO tasks gave me a positive feeling that, this might be my chance to get recommended if all goes well in Psych and IO. I was having the gut feeling that my GTO officer has recommended me for sure from his side.

 

  1. Conference (Day-5):

At last the D-day came when all of us were waiting what is going to happen next! We were called for the conference and being chest number 1, I was the first to sit in the corridor to be called upon by the panel for final discussion before the result. I was quite nervous and it was obvious as I was facing my 13th attempt. I was regularly keeping my faith up in god and praying that “13” has to be my lucky attempt and somewhere I was positive in my mind. The officers went inside the conference room and I thought they might discuss on my performance or might consider me as a Border Line case but in fact, my chest number was there on the screen within 15 seconds which means they did not discuss much about me. So, it was clear whether directly IN or OUT. I went in the conference room and my IO asked me basic questions regarding stay and food in SSB and then wished me best of luck for future ahead. It was clear in their mind what my result was!

Then the most difficult part was to wait till the last chest number to come out of that room and later we were called to declare the final result. Fingers were crossed, prayers were ON, Hopes were high and positive. The Psychologist came to declare result carrying a file in his hand and he asked “Any guesses! how many got recommended this time?” to which everyone replied “Sir! Five!! “. Then he said, “yes! five of you got recommended this time”. My hope for getting IN went straight up to the bar and I kept on praying to God for getting me through this time. He declared four chest numbers out of five and I was still waiting for mine to come.

And finally!!! He said the last Chest number who got recommended is CHEST NUMBER 1 (ME). I can’t even explain what were my expressions and emotions at that time. My each attempt since 2013 started running like a flash in front of my eyes, the way I reached to those SSB centers, those times before SSB exam I spent on Railway platforms, travelling all the way to Allahabad, Bhopal, Bangalore, Kapurthala for my SSBs, promises made to my mother for fulfilling her last wish which was to see her son getting commissioned in Defense Forces, making my father proud by giving him the biggest gift he deserved, living up to the expectations of my friends and well-wishers. I even forgot to speak up my name after listening to my chest number and thanked GOD for finally giving me what I have been working hard for! It was a dream which I believed and achieved with the efforts I made. I am thankful to GOD and my parents the most.

Also, much thanks to RAJPAL Sir, for always backing me up and keeping my spirits high that “Yes! I have it in me “. He is not only my Teacher or GURU, he is one of those Heroes of my life to whom I can never repay lifetime. Many thanks to the people who believed in me and mostly to those who did not believe in me made me what I am today. You guys kept me going.

Whatever is destined for you, just put down all your efforts to achieve it and you will achieve it one day.

Most importantly! If you want to become an officer, first start living like an officer in your daily life. It brings you up to the qualities required.

My motto since childhood is only “NEVER GIVE UP” and I never really do. So, do not give up on your dreams if you are willing to do anything for it. Just go for it till you get it !

All the best to every Aspirant out there ! Signing Off with best regards, Bhanu Pratap.
