For Pia, regular life is a thing of the past. She is
now an Army wife. From ‘just Pia’ to an Aunty, a
memsaab and – her favourite words in the whole
wide world – Mrs Pia Arjun Mehra. At twentysix,
Pia finds herself having to suddenly be more
‘lady-like’; focus on themed ladies’ meets, high
teas and welfare functions; and deal with long
(unexpected) separations from her husband,
extraordinary challenges, a little heartache, and,
well, growing up.
In the mysterious and grand world of Army wives,
Pia learns that walking in high heels is okay as
long as you don’t trip on combat boots. She learns
that ‘civil’ is also a noun, that JCO and GOC are
(very!) different, that snacks are ‘shown’ and WTF
is better explained as Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Yes,
it really is a new world!
Let this quirky, hilarious story of the first year of
Pia’s Army-wife life show you that the spice to
a soldier’s life is most definitely his better, very
strong, bloody extremely elegant, never-cussing,
witty, warm and passionate half, his Army wife.
