Hey, kian here again. Good news and bad news.
Good news: our dear Yen Shong is a sword of honour recipient. which means he is the most outstanding cadet in his vocation, combat engineers, ranked no.1 out of ~70 cadets. its the highest honour an officer cadet can receive for his training. most vocations (eg. combat engineers, signals, armour, infantry, air defense, navy, C3, logistics) have one sword of honour each, and a few sword of merits. whilst other vocations have none. anyways, its a really big deal. he's done extremely well in all aspects like fitness, leadership qualities and potential, peer appraisal, technical ability and knowledge etc etc. oh ya, he was also platoon best in my platoon in bmt, in case you all dont already know. ha, now we know what he's been up to all this while.
Bad news: the organising committee for the commissioning parade changed their minds and decided that guests need tickets to view the parade. we're only given very limited tickets each. n im very sorry, i won't be able to supply any tickets for the class. unless if there's anyone with a great desire to attend, contact me, i might be able to work out something.
