FATHERS AT WAR SEE CHILDREN 'GROW UP IN PICTURES'
Home has been reduced to a handful of photos, e-mails with the children, a homemade silver dog tag. When they can, the dads swap memories when no one is trying to kill them.

I beg to differ. My father has been an active member of the Indian army for the past 27 years. I can't think of a time he was not there when I needed him.
And, he was always insistent that he got time to spent time with us. Though, now I feel it may have cost him a recommendation or too, but I am thankful to him for that.
