Prospectus

He will have to learn, I know,

Teach him that all men are not just,
all men are not true.
but teach him also that
for every scoundrel there is a hero;
that for every selfish Politician,
there is a dedicated leader..
Teach him for every enemy there is a friend,
Steer him away from envy,
if you can,

Teach him the secret of

quiet laughter.
Let him learn early that
the bullies are the easiest to lick
Teach him, if you can,
the wonder of books..
But also give him quiet time
to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky,
bees in the sun,
and the flowers on a green hillside.

In the school teach him

it is far honourable to fail
than to cheat..
Teach him to have faith
in his own ideas,
even if every one tells him
they are wrong
Teach him to be gentle
with gentle people,
and tough with the tough.

Try to give my son

the strength not to follow the crowd
when everyone is getting on the band wagon
Teach him to listen to all men
but teach him also to filter
all he hears on a screen of truth,
and take only the good
that comes through.
Teach him if you can,
how to laugh when he is sad
Teach him there is no shame in tears,
Teach him to scoff at cynics
and to beware of too much sweetness..

Teach him to sell his brawn

and brain to the highest bidders
but never to put a price-tag
on his heart and soul.
Teach him to close his ears
to a howling mob
and to stand and fight
if he thinks hes right.
Treat him gently,
but do not cuddle him,
because only the test
of fire makes fine steel.

Let him have the courage

to be impatient
Let him have the patience to be brave.
Teach him always
to have sublime faith in himself,
because then he will have
sublime faith in mankind.
This is a big order,
but see what you can do
He is such a fine fellow,
my son!

Quaid -e- Azams Message

Pakistan is proud of his youth, particularly the
students, who are nation builders of tomorrow.
They must fully equip themselves by
discipline, education and training for the
arduous task lying ahead of them.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Captain

Karnal Sher Khan

Shaheed (Nishan-e-Haider)

The Cadet College is dedicated to Captain

Karnal Sher Khan Shaheed (NH). He was born
on 1 January 1970. He was commissioned in the
Army on 14 October 1994. Captain Karnal Sher
Khan emerged as the symbol of mettle and
courage during the Kargil conflict on the Line of
Control. He set personal examples of bravery
and inflicted heavy losses on the enemy. He
defended the five strategic posts, which he
established with his men at the height of 17,000
feet at Gultary, and repulsed many Indian
attacks. After many abortive attempts, the
Indians on 5 July 1999 ringed the posts of
Captain Karnal Sher Khan with the help of two
battalions and unleashed heavy mortar fire and
managed to capture some part of one of his posts.
Despite facing all odds, he led a counter-attack
and re-captured the lost parts of his post. But
during the course, he was hit by the machine-gun
fire and embraced 'SHAHADAT' at the same
post. He was awarded the highest gallantry
award Nishan-e-Haider for his great courage.
