Got the news on Thursday about my promotion to my next higher rank: Corporal. This will be my final rank all the way till ORD, and it should be this all the way through NSman life later.<\/p>\n
Drove the 2 vehicles back from Sudong with Jianliang yesterday. Nothing much on the Minister Visit. I did not even get a glimpse of any minister, although I read in the newspaper that the new Defence Minister was there. No mention about the V200. No photos of it also. I wonder why were we there in the first place. Was it to put on a show where all eyes of the watchers were on other attractions?<\/p>\n
I do not care that much anyway. I have done my part. What's over's over.<\/p>\n
Went to Beach Road to get my rank sewed on 3 sets of No. 4 and 1 set of No. 3. There are 3 more sets and 1 more coverall to be sewed with the rank, and I shall do that later.<\/p>\n
Got my pager today. Hope it will not ring this month, or else I will have to rush all the way back to camp and get ready to move out, with everything, everyone, and deploy… I do not wish this to happen, and I certainly do not hope to go off abruptly in the middle of a lunch, or while enjoying my holiday…<\/p>\n
However, I am ready, if anything really happens… I will always be there, to support, to counter, to defend…<\/p>\n
Vigilance is the key…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
