when i know that the sec 3 students are going to Army Open House 2017 for a Learning Journey, i immediately volunteered to go as an accompanying teacher.
going to Army Open House 2017 holds extra significance for me as i just got into the Mindef Reserves, and i really want to go there to relive my memories when i was a NSF and NSman.
was super glad to see my RSM, as well as my tank commander course mate. the last i saw him was like 10 years ago?! he is now a warrant officer. and he is the only regular left from our batch.
this is the leopard tank. i was trained on the sm1 tank. is quite a pity that the sm1 tank commanders who ORD-ed never get the chance to be converted into leopard tank commanders.
and i also bumped into muammar, my ex student from the previous workplace. he is a very good football player and was in the sch team. he was also my house captain. so happy to see him again. saw a few ex students from my current workplace as well. :)
glad to be able to visit the army open house, with such good weather (although it was extremely hot but hot weather is definitely better than rainy weather), as well as with fewer people. once the army open house is open to the public on weekends, the crowd will definitely be 100 times crazier!!
