I don't believe in chance. Only Trials.

So they have announced...RBS 70. The only man packed weapon system in the course. 87kg of machine split amongst 3 people, an average weight of 40-50kg on each persons back. Haha I really don't know what to make out of my posting. Happy cause I've got the nicest camp of the lot, with a wonderful cadet mess and gym facilities. That's really where the smiles end.
Lots of hard work to help us better cope with the weight, most of my good friends going off to other weapon systems (though there are still some around :D), little welfare (no more nights out :((), more push ups...
But you know what. Really, there's nothing to complain. It's tough physical training and that's what I want. I've always wanted, since coming to OCS, to be able to truthfully, sincerely shed that tear during commissioning. To know that I've achieved something after having worked so hard. It's like getting my PSLE or even my IB results. After all the hard work, the sleepless nights, the constant battle to just overcome every single challenge. I guess it's true that you will not understand sweetness unless you've undergone hardship.
The next 20 weeks will be bitter sweet and I'm looking forward to it :D
30 pull ups here I come!!! :D
~In the silence...I'm waiting to hear your voice~
