ok ok,
Heres the drift ….
A fren of mine named Toothfairy, rightly so for his shining and stylish teeth, told me that a few days back our former Unit, SISPEC had been under the TV’s spotlight. It seems that Mediacorp had gone to Sispec to interview Muslim trainees and instructors on how they cope with training during the holy month of Ramadan.
My former Company, Alpha company, also affectionately known as A Block was where most of the interviews were done. Maybe because its situated at the heart of Sispec. A frend of mine, 2SG Redzuan aka Cool, was the instructor choosen to give his take to TV. He probably got lucky considering the fact that the four horsemen (Me,Toothfairy, Robbie, black rose) of A-block have already ORDed. The documentary had followed him on one training mission to show the lovely parents in lovely Singapore how shiok the stinking army is.
From what i heard, Cool was preety fierce with his trainees during the filming, Thats probably a good thing. But the trainees looked dead and unresponsive, Now thats probably a bad thing.
Well, Cool’s famous now and most probably will be acting part time for Suria. Thank God, they never show Moses aka Black chains. On a lighter note, so many years, so many batches so many people have handled Ramadan well, even so considering the fact that training now is a joke compared to last time. I agree with ToothFairy, only 28th and 29th batches rule, the rest sucks and can go and rot.
Cheers
Ps: Still missing A Block but loath SISPEC !!!
