So that after they've stomped on Paki butts, we can tell which part is the boot and which the stomped butt. Sort of like before and after pics. This is the before part.
thats a putti....inherited from the brits as part of battle dress. Except for it looking overly shiny it seems to be an improvement over the standard cloth ones.
The jawan is question sure has long feet....perhaps the reason the picturewala got attracted to it. When those feet encased in aforementioned boots connect with a jehadi's butt or jewels(one hopes!)....damage will be gruesome.
