Ebaad harbored aspirations of joining the naval force. Admiral Naveed Ashraf, the Chief of the Naval Staff, approved the honorary rank to fulfill his wish. Accompanied by his parents, Ebaad toured the Pakistan Navy Ship KHAIBAR. He received an informative briefing on the vessel's functions and day-to-day operations. Ebaad expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Pakistan Navy and shared his deep respect for their service. Concurrently, the Pakistan Navy has opened registration for two recruitment programs.
