Remember that Dukakis was photographed riding in the loader's hatch, not the commander's.
India's tank commanders, like the tank captain pictured, are a whole lot better breed than either of America's selfserving politicians. Give the Indian tank crewman his choice of ruling his entire country, or just his tank company, and see which he chooses. He knows at which one he might or might not do well at, and at which one he will almost certainly perform superbly. For him, failure is not an option.
I'd soldier with those Indian tankers and their leaders anyday.
