Bravo 12

Had a wonderful dinner last evening though my stomach was still churning. While everyone seemed to be willing to meet up, no one was willing to get the hands dirtied to organise something. And at the end, it has to be the usual few 'on' people like robert, mervin, marcus, justin etc to do the logistics and planning. Come to think of it, the last time I met them was at the ORD-function after I burnt the office microwave oven. As for an occasion when we really could talk and laugh without the men, it was just before CNY last year.

It was fun talking about old war stories, all the boo-boos that we made, watching the old war movies starring us and feeling sad that we were so much slower than the heroes in the war movies. My best memory was still the commanders' training, a 2D1N excursion whereby the men were given a day off while the commanders went out for an exercise.

It was fun because everyone knew what to do and there was the minimum level of enthusiasm. Not to mention that robert was made to dig a shellscrape for the first time in don't know how lone. There was added memories because I thought I suffered the most (by my definition), handling the role of 2ic in occupation and then switching to PC-runner with the 4kg cellphone of the 1920s.

Hearing the heroics of A○EC, how I wished I was part of it, and I'm pretty sure the few who sat by the listen felt the same way.
