Thanks To COAS, This Kid With Thalassaemia Became Honorary Captain For A Day Fulfilling His Dream!

Kids who are packed with so much passion and determination put adults to shame. They dream big, have purest of intentions combined with a fiery soul unsoiled from the harsh realities of the world. Their innocence is definitely a breath of fresh air reminding the older and weary how important it is to never let setbacks stop you from your aims, goals, and dreams.

It’s every child’s dream in Pakistan to join the army and serve the country. The readiness to die fighting for Pakistan runs in the very spirit of our children. One such great example is of a child whose dream was to join the prestigious army but his future goals were tarnished by a life-threatening disease, thalassemia major.
