Long time nv blog le..got no time and was busy the past few weeks...now i gonna flood everything here..lolx..i will start off wif my 7 days of field camp..can say is a really unforgettable experience in my life..it was fuk up that it actually rain for the whole entire 7 days without failed..our tent is wet..and almost everything is wet..that's what make all of us low morale and lead to slow movement..so basically..we got tekan for almost everyday..it was HELL!!!!!!!!!!!nth can be as shag as these..every nite is a nitemare b4 we slp..imagine everyday u gotta slp in a puddle of water and mud..GEEZ!!! u can hardly get dry until the afternoon sun came out for a while b4 it rain again..but thanks OC for 1 particular day that we actually gotta bathe at 1 of the campsite..it was the best shower i ever have in my life when i can only powder bathe for the 7 days..we got no time to brush our teeth in the morning everyday..can u see how dirty & stinky we are? haha!!!!!!!!!7 days without brushing teeth and only 1 day of shower..i will cherish every min and sec now when i got the chance to shower at home or at coy..
Almost everyone will tend to get heat rash & abrasion..that's unavoidable...but luckily..i nv get any heat rash..if not i will suffer even more..sand flies and mosquito is the best enemies in our field camp..they are all combat trained..even wif lotsa insect repellant on..they still can penetrate our uniform and give us love bites anywhere they like..a few of my frds got so serious..that they looked like some HIV positive carrier...LOLX!
Biscuits & some milo..coffee and lipton tea is some of the best breakfast or snacks we can have...eating the same biscuits for 7 days..woot! nv will i eat those biscuits again..combat ration was not too bad..pasta & glutinous rice being the fav in field camp..chicken dumpling etc..the day we got to bathe..we also got some fresh ration from the canteen..be it some stupid vegetables and meats..we also find it to be so delicious..among the 4 campsites...oil plantation & sarabim is the best..these 2 campsites is where i really can slp well be it wet or dirty..as long as there's no mosquito raping me in the nite..im content..
i really learnt a lot in these short or rather long 7 days..how to work as a platoon...session..and individual performance..this is where we can really see and know who is those ppl who can work 2gther and who are those cb kias who cant..digging self script is hella shag..im like digging my own grave...haha..the entire campsite looked like graveyard and we are told to slp in it..but i didn't..so many worms and ants..if i were to slp in it..im as good as going to die...the nite is often so fucking cold..worst than air con...so 1 of the nite..we actually set up a small fireplace to warm ourselves without slping..
Now abt the training..there's no pt(physical training) but fieldcamp is way more shagged than pt..i dunno why..maybe we are wearing sbo and helmet and the rifle whole day...there are lots of lectures to attend..and many tests to take..im always the ic for my session training..so its kinda troublesome as i gotta shout out loud a lot of commands for them to move or charge or fire!! if i shout anything wrong..im the one who always get the scolding or punishment..thank god i memorise everything & pay attention to all the stuffs i gotta do..so u can actually see a diff jerry in the field camp yea? haha..i also find it strange that i nv even shouted or scolded anyone during the field camp..am i starting to change for the better? in terms of attitude and discipline? well..i gotta say YES and thanks a lot to the fuking army!sometimes..i really dun like to blow my temper as it only make me and the rest uneasy or they will feel angry or what...but..its always the same bunch of maggots who keep saboing the whole platoon for unneccessary punishment..be it at company or at fieldcamp..what i can say is..they are hopeless..not saying im garang or what..but no matter how fast or garang i am..im not going for sispec or whatever shits..im just trying to avoid all those punishments as far as possible..i do it for my platoon..not alone..u can get to nowhere being a loner..
so there was this nite when we gotta walk abt 7km to our next campsite in file formation..being the ic again..i lead the way wif a tiny map..it was dark and hard to walk..was afraid to be attacked by wild boars or snakes..lolx..so i told my session to walk fast and end it quick..the longer we walk..the more tired we get..a blink of eyes..and we reached and ended it smoothly without walking to any wrong direction..
after learning and training for so long..there's this session test i reckon...where we gotta fired blanks...everything was fine for me..until the ending..when my sgt asked me to fired off the rest of the ammo..i fired off everything and began to check clear..being shag and a little lazy already..i nv open my ammo pouch so i squeeze the trigger and "BANG!" it goes..i misfire..fucking shit!i gotta server 1 confine for that as its dangerous..luckily im pointing my rifle towards the ground..if i nv..1 of my frds beside me will get hurt..
7 days finally passed and i really feeled so relieve..hee..
after booked in...we had our ippi evaluation test...(NAFA)i got silver from failed..haha..my ps and all praised me for the maximum effort put in..i got 5 pts for all except for 2.4km run..so this time rd..i run damn fast..haha..shiok! many of frds fucked me when i run my SOC so fast..cannot run 2.4km but SOC i can really run..maybe the obstacles infront of me makes me run faster to reach them and cleared it..
Was caught smoking in our toilet..but i confessed it myself after being called up for interrogation..well..my ps told me that he dun wanna report us so he talked to me and asked me to talk to the rest as im the smoking ic in my platoon..OC and my PC also talked to me abt it during my sit test..OC wanted me to give him the punishment b4 we can actually smoked..so i told him 1 confine and served guard duty till i POP..but ps decided to only asked us to clean up blk 43 & 45 where all the sgts slp or stay..being the ic for the smokers in my platoon..i promised my OC and PC and talked to my buddies abt it..hehe..everything is settled now..
SITEST was 3 days outfield..back to reclaimed land again..where all the mosquito are combat trained..was kinda fun when we go to stations for missions and we gotta think abt how to solve it..i dun wanna go to OCS or SISPEC so i anyhow do..hehe...
cant book out last weekends but confine was rather relaxing..smoking was OTOT(own time own target) and i spend most of the time watching tv and playing table tennis in aircon room and relax..then was told to be the platoon ic for these 3 days b4 we booked out..can say i did a good job..hee..everyone was fast and seldom got punish unneccessary..thanks to JERRY!!! =P
