New Case of Influenza A H1N1 from MAJU CAMP
I heard the news broadcaster mentioned something about 马裕军营 on the Channel 8 news just a while ago. Wait a minute... isn't that MAJU CAMP??? Holy crap, I have many friends working there, let's hope no one else is infected...
"Singapore has confirmed another 26 new H1N1 cases, bringing the total number of infections to 194.
10 of the new cases are local transmissions. Of these, four are from the Butter factory cluster, a popular night spot.
One is from River Life Church and another is from the Singapore Armed Forces Maju Camp..."

I DID IT!!!
I DID IT!!!
52 minutes is the time to beat. Guess what, my timing is 51m57s!! 3 seconds slower & I would have to do it all over again. What a close call~
The truth is, almost nothing went according to plan. After the swim, I had a bit of problem wearing my socks I dunno why. Went through the obstacles rather smoothly, off the ramp with a round of applause from the OCS cadets, which was really encouraging. I was minutes behind time after the up slope killer. Despite the fatigue, I pushed on.
450m from the end point, my stomach turned & I puked. I guess it wasn't a good idea to have roti prata with curry before a CPFT ;P The next thing I know, Sgt Song Po appeared from nowhere & was running with me. Alvin were yelling to me that there's only 20-seconds left. I gave it whatever I've got and sprint to the finishing line, had a last glimpse at the clock, and then I dropped to the ground with a huge sense of relief.
IPPT, SOC & CPFT are the 3 passing criteria for the PTI course. CPFT somehow resembles an army version of the modern biathlon, involving both swimming and running. Here is roughly its components, in sequence:
200m swim with long4 + rifle --> FBO 1.5km run --> clear SOC --> 3.5km rundown
PTI Goodie Bag we collected upon passing the course,
I love the golden cross swords =D
