The Tamil Liberation army (LTTE) has not only grown to great
heights with regard to man power, but they have also expanded themselves
in every aspect of warfare and governing. The discipline and respect
that it's members have both within their ranks as well as outside the
army, has been paralleled by very few armies. The policies such as
no smoking and drinking and other such policies have contributed to the
discipline of this army, in which all it's soldiers treat each other as
brothers and sisters.
The LTTE at present consists of three
wings: 1. Army.
2. Navy.
3. Anti Aircraft wing.
Another major wing of the Liberation Tigers is the
Black Tiger
wing, which consists of members who sacrifice their own lives in suicide
attacks on major military installations and that have been set up the
Sinhala government, in the Tamil homeland and it's surrounding waters.
The Black Tigers have shown their
dedication and sacrifice to the Tamil
homeland by hitting at major military installations which are, difficult
to be overrun by a conventional army or would result in the loss of many
soldiers.
What singles out the Liberation Tigers from other major
military powers is that no soldier
is provided any sort of luxury enjoyed
by soldiers in other armies; neither is s/he promised anything in return
for his sacrifice other than the freedom of his own people and land.
