  <abstract>In April 2002, Arjun Singh, one of the legends of the Indian Air Force, was honoured with the first five star rank of Marshal of the Indian Air Force. When he strode up to the dais to receive the Marshal's baton from the President of India, it was the crowning glory of a brilliant career. From facing the Japanese during WWII, to leading the Indian Air Force during the war of 1965 - Arjan Singh and his men always ruled the skies. Then followed years of distinguished service as a diplomat and L.G. Delhi. This is the inspiring story of a leader who transformed the Air Force into a professional fighting force.</abstract>
