In Dec: Games' Day Champions for the 1st time, Raven!!! POP for the recruits marks the in-take of another.....

Looking back at the days in OCS, it is the most unforgetable days that I will ever forget. The sweat, the blood, the tears, the obstacles that we all been through. Together as One, Fight as One, Play as One, End as One.... The journey we took to become what we are today, not to forget the instructors and our Wing Comd in Charlie, they were the best!!! Whole lot louder than me..... "Good Day"

Busy busy busy.... Been packed up with work since the new recruits came in. This batch are all JC students, looks clever but their physical are damn low.... Wondering what they have been doing in school... Lol.... For the past week, some colleagues had been clearing their leave, stretching the manpower of perm staff to the MAX. Me? Not yet, my leave is next week.... Been very tired since the bookout on Fri, whenever I walk, I felt pain on my feet....

Today is Christmas! Hope everyone is having fun outside.....

Less than 2 months in Raven Coy, and now the recruits have all POP. Time really flies.... They have done us all proud, to be the Games' Day Champion. Although they are not my first batch, but seeing them passing out from BMT is really memorable. During the graduation march, KX was so lucky to be the safety officer, and I had to walk with them the 24km route march. The march was liked going a merry-go-round and long, still it did not stop us all from finishing it. Sadly my voice is lost, after leading my platoon 2 to sing to the MAXimum, I knew it would be this way but who cares, the mood was so high... Thus, I really must take these few days to rest and recover my voice.

The night before their parade was a war that I'll never forget, the guys from platoon 4 plus instructors "raped" me upside down, brushed me with kiwi, washed my hair with detergent, painted in camo creams and poured onto me a mixture of coke and shampoo by the "Champ". Since it's their last night, I will not stand there and do nothing, I will RETALIATE!!!! I forced my way through the crowds, rushed to the toilet and grab anything I could, rushed out and ran over them.... It was really fun but it invited complains.....

I would liked to say this to the Champions in Raven Coy: All the best to all of you in wherever you go. Your journey does not end in BMT but it has only just begin another chapter in your NS life. Always fly high and go for the distance, don't waste your time in NS, make full use of it. Remember to play hard and also to work hard, push your fellow colleagues along and strive for your goals. For those who wants to be commanders but are posted into units to be men, don't give up! As long you perform well, you will still have the chance to go... For those lucky ones, grab tightly to your opportunity and never let go, do your best! Lastly, do take care of yourself, if you need to report sick, go ahead. NS is only 2 years, don't create any injuries to yourself. Rest if you must so that you can carry on the journey ahead... All the best!!!!

To detail Bravo, continued to work hard and speak up more (B9), make more friends around.. And Helmi, I hope you can deliver what you promised me....

To platoon 4, you all have bring laughter and joy to me as a new officer around. All of you are each blessed with certain qualities in you, work hard and your dreams might just come true.

To platoon 2, although I have only taken over you all for a few days but you all have shown me your cooperation and support. I thanked you all for that, do take care of yourself especially Jun Beng and Chia... Health is more important than anything else, as your parents will be worrying.

PS: Names I may not remember all, but faces I will always remember.... To the Champions, if you need help, you know where to find me.
