Vague purpose , need to make it more objective

U have given a nice sketch of SST. Except for zila schools there were hardly good schools with competent teachers in Bihar when Sainik schools were envisioned after China debacle in 1962.
The purpose was mainly to prepare good officers for army and impart them officer like socialization and culture from early days.Sainik schools have served their objectives very well. However , those who had to go in civilian life didn’t miss the leadership lessons they learnt/ learn in these schools and have proved themselves assets wherever they r.. They have made their mark in whichever field they have gone. They r adventurous, risk taking, innovative . They get casted in a different metal altogether in 5-6 years of school training.
