25th July-Last day in sembawang Naval Camp

Friday supposed to be the day for us gunners to leave this place as we have already pass the course. But index number 16-25 have to do guard duty.. for one last time.
We played street soccer for 3 hours in the afternoon, one last time.I started to miss this place already.. after all i have been staying here for 8 months.
Guard duty consist of 18 personnel, 1 guy= 2 females. 10 of us guys Gunners +Junior Rating Course(3 guys + 10 gers).We have been doing guard duty with them 2 times in a row.I find them to be quite friendly and interesting.But too bad we might not be able to see each other again.Err.. not exactly as after they pass out everything after 3 months like us, they might be posted to the same ship with us.The In charged passed me the Guard duty Peronnel sheet to me last week.Got all of the contact numbers.I kept the piece of paper in the file, dun think i will need the paper .
Every morning 8 am, we have to do Colors.Colors is a practice like school's Marih Kita hoisting the flag up.But military style is basically more complicated.B4 the moment b4 flag is hoist up, the bell is struck 8 times followed by 3 pipers to sound :everyone stand still,then flag will be hoist up.After that, pipers will sound:everyone carry on.We need 6 people to do this job.i assume i will be a piper and start to practice on friday. But Sat morning, 7.55am, class Ic told me i will be hoisting the flag up.I am stunned.i have no expierience in doing this and will not mind actually . But military Rules are strict and any thing crop up like example, flag dropped on the floor or flag cannot go up etc will be punished severely. Well,with the help of my classmate anand, he told me the steps and things are going fine..except they said that the flags went up too slow.Can't believe i have a chance to raise a singapore flag.

After that we packed our things and leave...but monday we will be coming back to get our postings.
