For a military man, Brigadier B.D. Mishra has had a career that every soldier in the armed forces dreams of. In Nation's Calling, he takes readers on the incredible journey of his life. From combating the Chinese aggression on India in 1962 to fighting against the Pakistanis in 1965 and again in 1971 during the Bangladesh Liberation War, and from conducting counter-insurgency operations in the inhospitable terrain of the Northeast to battling the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in Sri Lanka in 1987-88 and commanding two successful anti-hijack operations in Amritsar and Kolkata, Brigadier Mishra's military achievements have been nothing short of magnificent. Since hanging up his hobnailed boots, he has served as Governor of Arunachal Pradesh, Governor of Meghalaya and Governor of Mizoram, and is currently the Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh.
