The Cadets could not have conducted a fire power demonstration, they at best would have witnessed it.

There is a very clear benefit of having women in any male dominated job,such as front line armed forces...If the women do good,the men will do even better.

But what if the men are lazy and already have their egos crushed by their mothers for joining the army?

why not? Maybe they don't in India but they surely do in Pakistan. These are called battle inculcation exercises with live rounds. As you can see even the Lady Cadets participate.

Sir,

Thats just the point. Battle inoculation & a Fire power demo are two diff things.

Battle inoculation is a routine training event done for recruits, cadets & soldiers to familiarise them with battle conditions. This is done with live ammo.

A fire power demo involves weapons & weapon systems that are beyond the purview of cadets - the world over and as the word suggests, a demo is witnessed while inoculation is carried out.

you are right , usually fire power demo is "done" for every Long course (cadets) but it is not done by the cadets , all the different types of tanks are fired , artillery pieces and now its seem the air force is joining in aswl .
