In this episode of Call of Duty – Real Soldiers, Real Stories, we feature Colonel Gautam Guha, a second-generation Infantry veteran.
Throughout his illustrious career, Col Guha has served along the Line of Control, led Counter-Insurgency operations in the Valley, and braved the icy frontiers of the Siachen Glacier. His tenure with the NSG saw him take part in the historic 26/11 Mumbai Operations.

But life took an unexpected turn when a severe spine injury led to declining health, weight gain, and a diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes. Drawing on his infantry spirit and unbreakable resilience, he turned adversity into purpose — rebuilding his health, reversing diabetes, and inspiring countless others to do the same.

Today, Col Guha stands tall once again — not just as a soldier, but as a Health Coach, guiding others toward strength, balance, and wellness.
