Re: Number Of Officers In Indian Navy
The Indian Navy is the naval branch of the Indian Armed Forces. The President of India serves as Supreme Commander of the Indian Navy. The Chief of Naval Staff (CNS), usually a four-star officer in the rank of Admiral, commands the navy. The Royal Indian Navy had expanded by over ten times to personnel strength of over 25,000 officers and sailors. Its fleet at the end of the war comprised seven sloops, four frigates, four corvettes, 14 minesweepers, 16 trawlers, two depot ships, 30 auxiliary vessels, 150 landing craft, 200 harbour craft and several motor launches. The RIN suffered 275 casualties during the conflict: 27 officers, two warrant officers and 105 ratings killed in action, two ratings missing in action and a further 14 officers, two warrant officers and 123 ratings wounded. For their valiant role in the war, the officers and ratings of the RIN received amongst them the following honours and decorations: a KBE (Mil.), a knighthood, a CB (Mil.), 10 CIEs, two DSOs, a CBE, 15 DSCs, an OBE, 28 DSMs, eight OBIs, two IOMs, 16 BEMs, 10 Indian Defence Service Medals, a Royal Humane Society Medal, 105 mentions in dispatches and 118 assorted commendations. Officers counting in Indian navy will be raise manpower to 300 officers and around 2,500 sailors, and build a naval air station with a 6,000-foot runway.
