881 Signal Squadron - Chowl Zari Team photo (2)

(88 Signal Regiment related photo): We are celebrating “Diwali” ~ Paul Cormier and John Spencer. Diwali, or Dipawali, is India’s biggest and most important holiday of the year. The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa) that Indians light outside their homes to symbolize the inner light that protects us from spiritual darkness. This festival is as important to Hindus as the Christmas holiday is to Christians. Major Kumar from India who is taking this photo was educating us on this particular holiday.
