hi blog, been a long time. again. I’m on leave till next year. Been a very long time since I’ve slept  at home for more than 5 days consecutively. The last time was probably during my BMT block leave . Feels great to be at home =)

The past few months had been hectic,  conducting one activity after another. Barely had the time to do other stuff. They say that as an officer, I’m in charge of my men’s training, morale and discipline. The past 6 months was pure training, I wanted to spend more time on other areas, but my workload doesn’t allow me to do that very often. But I believe I should be able to focus on the other areas now that their training phase is over.

The new batch of officers got commissioned recently. I heard that a few of them will be posted to our company. They are probably going through their orientation programme right now. Havent heard any news of whether my appointment would change or not. It would be a pity if I have to hand over my platoon to the new officer because my real job as a PC starts now. Section and platoon level trainings are going to start and that will be the time when I get to draw my rifle and fight side by side with my platoon.

On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind handing over the platoon to the new officer because no matter what, I will not be the one going through their summex with them (The next officer will be).  It would benefit the platoon as a whole to start training with their new PC at this early stage.

Ok la, I think I should stop speculating. I will know the results when I return to camp next year (yes! next year). No matter what the results are, I will still be happy – PC, Staff Officer, Coy 2IC, all sounds good to me =).
