56th Cadet Officer Course Graduation Parade

On 12th Dec 2008, I, 3SG Tan Jun Liang represented CCHY NCC Air to participate in a HQ parade, the 56th C/OFFR Course Graduation Parade as an armed escort. The selections were on 28th Nov 2008 at HQ NCC where we were tested on our turnout, bearing and confidence by RSM NCC personally. After that, I was glad to know that I was selected as the Air Armed Escort in the Colours Party. It was truly a great experience donning the NCC No.1 uniform once again and participating in a HQ parade with a prestigious appointment. The Colours Party represent the entire NCC Singapore with its main colours, namely, NCC, Land, Sea and Air. Other appointment holders in the Colours Party were also very friendly and we truly had a great time together during the rehearsals and the actual parade. Graduated from the parade are C/OFFR Neo Wei Kheng Kenny (Contingent 2 2IC) and C/OFFR Lim De Yi from our unit. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate them for their enduring spirit during the 3 weeks and successful passing out of the course as Cadet Officers. We will give them the due respect as we continue to work hand in hand, building up CCHY NCC Air as a unit! 3SG Tan Jun Liang

Training visit to Pearce Air Base in Perth Australia from 8th to 12th December 2008

HQ NCC has organized a training visit to Pearce Air Base in Perth Australia from 8th to 12th December, as part of the initiatives under the NCC 21 Masterplan. A total of 2 NCC Officers and 10 NCC Cadets from 4 schools were selected to participate in this overseas training visit. The objectives of the visit are to improve the goodwill between HQ NCC and HQ RSAF under the Cadet Exchange Programme; to observe RSAF pilot trainee training in Pearce Air Base, Australia for the purpose of exposing NCC cadets to pilot trainee training in a SAF Overseas Training Base so as to increase military awareness in NCC Cadets; and last but not least, to reward deserving NCC Officers, Cadet Officers and Cadets for their outstanding contributions to the organization. The programme for the visit is as follows: Day 1 – 8th December 2008 The cadets and teachers assembled at Changi International Airport Terminal 1 at 0630hr to check-in. The flight, QF 72 departed at 0915hr and arrived in Perth International Airport at 1710hr, Perth time, which was an hour ahead of Singapore. We were picked up by Jeff, our designated tour-leader and driven to Pearce Air Base for dinner, before check-in to Novotel Vines Resort. We stayed at the resort for the next 2 nights. Day 2- 9th December 2008 Cadets and teachers arrived at Pearce Air Base to begin the 2 Day Pearce Air Base programme. We were welcomed by LTA Shaun who was the liaising officer for our visit. After breakfast, the programme began with an address by OC A, Maj Adrian Toh, a video presentation, and a security briefing by the RSM. After lunch, we left the base for Sorrento Quay for a half day R&R. We returned to the base for dinner before heading back to our resort. Day 3- 10th December 2008 Cadets and teachers arrived at Pearce Air Base for breakfast. The second day programme began with a squadron tour, an interaction session with Basic Wing Course trainees about their “Life as a trainee”, and finally, a visit to the Flight Simulation Centre. After dinner, we returned to our resort. Day 4- 11th December 2008 Cadets and teachers checked out of Vines Resort in the morning and began our day tour into Perth City. We began with some light shopping of local goodies at a nougat and chocolate factory. We then went over to Caversham Wildlife Park to look at native Australian animals, such as Koala, Wombat and Kangaroos. After lunch, we checked-in to Aarons Hotel, which was a stone-throw from the main shopping belt of Perth City - Hay Street Mall. However we did not stay long in the hotel; we unpacked quickly and changed into our beach gear for Fremantle. On our way over, we made a quick shopping stop at Harbour Town. We spent the rest of the day at Fremantle beach before returning to Perth City for dinner at North Bridge.

Day 5- 12th December 2008 Cadets and teachers checked out of Aaron Hotel at 1000hr and made a quick stop at King’s Park for photo opportunities. We left for Perth International Airport at 1045hr. We left Perth on QF 77 at 1310hr and arrived at Changi International Airport Terminal 1 at 1800hr, Singapore time.

Reflections:

"I think this trip has been quite an enjoyable and enriching experience because we get to see how the young Singaporean pilots-to-be live and study abroad in a totally different surrounding. It takes time for them to get accustomed with the culture, climate and way of living in Australia but at the same time, they have to study and train to become fighter pilots. It is remarkable how they are able to manage to cope and persevere for up to 92 weeks (Approx 2 years) in order to complete their course." - SSG Marcus Ho

Camp Pinnacle 2008

Camp Pinnacle 2008

Date: 1st December - 5th December

Venue: SISPEC, Pasir Laba Camp

Camp Pinnacle, an illustrious camp that is organised annually for the top 2 Part 'C' Specialists who are holding the appointments of USM or ASM in the NCC School Units. The main objectives of Camp Pinnacle are:

1) To forge closer links between the SAF and NCC through visits to different camps (Army/RSAF/RSN)

2) To observe the military hardware in SAF installations for the purpose of exposing NCC cadets to the capabilities of the 3G SAF.

3) To reward deserving senior cadets for their outstanding contributions to the organisation.

Although this camp is meant as a reward for the appointment holders, cadets should not have the mindset that Camp Pinnacle is some mediocre camp or a Part C Camp FEAST. Drills and discipline are emphasized strongly in SISPEC (School of Infantry SPECialists). As such, cadets are required to be attired in proper uniform at all times and not to mention, marching is mandatory to get from point to point in the camp.

During the first day of Camp Pinnacle, there was an opening address from the Warrant Officers and DC(West) CPT(NCC) Elizabeth Lee at the Warrant Officers' Auditorium. After having our lunch at the training sheds, we visited SISPEC Heritage Gallery where the history/formation of SISPEC was told briefly in pictures as cadets viewed the photo gallery in awe. Followed by that, cadets were brought to the IGTS (Infantry Gunnery Tactical System) to view how soldiers practice firing heavy artillery weapons on the simulators. (Similar to our IMT but instead of M16s, the weapons there are much bigger and powerful.)

Day 2: After breakfast, we were taken to SYFC (Singapore Youth Flying Club) where we had a mini briefing from SYFC instructors. Then, there was a tour around the SYFC compound and cadets saw the plane hangars and LC/RC workshops. We managed to try out the CAI (Computer Aided Instructor) meant for PPL students as well as the RC Flight Simulator. On the second half of the day, we were taken to Seletar Camp (Home Of The Bridging Engineers) where there was a talk from the Army Recruitment Officers about Army careers after secondary school. During the talk, cadets were briefed on the different vocations available in the Army and we were also persuaded by the Officers to sign on a career with the Army once we completed our 'O' Levels.

On the 3rd day, we headed down to Paya Lebar Air Base for the familiarisation flight on the C130 which lasted approximately 15mins. After lunch, we headed to the Air force Museum and toured around the vicinity and had a video screening in the theatre there. Cadets were also given free time to visit the souvenir shop on the ground floor to purchase the souvenirs there. During the night, we had our Camp Pinnacle Nite whereby cadets from every platoon had to put up a skit and cheer on stage. It was amusing to see cadets doing crazy stuff on stage and not to forget the Cadet Officers who went on stage to crack jokes and make all of us laugh with their funny antics.

4th Day: We headed out early in the morning to the Naval Diving Unit located beside the SAF Yacht Club. There, we were given the opportunity to view how the Naval Divers work and how their training was like. We also tried out the different weapons that were on display at the booths. There were different types of weapons that the Navy uses, from the smaller handguns to the larger sub machine guns. In the afternoon, there was a joyride on the Naval speed boats but sadly, due to time constraints and other factors, not everyone got a chance to ride. After the NDU visit, we headed to Tuas Naval Base and had a Navy career talk by the Navy Recruitment Officer. We were supposed to board the ship for a familiarisation visit but as luck would have it, the bad weather prevented us from doing so. Thus we were given refreshments as a compensation for missing out the ship visit.

Day 5: We were taken to the Survival Village located in another end of SISPEC. There, the Commando-trained Warrant Officer presented to us survival techniques and skills. We were taught how to build makeshift shelters and how to collect potable water in the jungle. Followed by that, all the cadets were gathered to witness a 'live' demonstration of how the Warrant Officers kill the quails and skin them for cooking. Other then quails, there were also crabs, chickens, frogs and eels that were killed for demonstration. The scene of blood squirting on the table and animals' gizzards exposed as their skins were ripped apart is sickening and definitely not for the faint-hearted. However, all the food don't go to waste as the Warrant officers and Specialists would cook it and consume it after we have left Survival Village. The killing is definitely not for fun and we should only do so at the last resort, as told by the Warrant Officers. They stood by the motto: "To survive, something has to die" which is so true when one is stuck in the middle of the jungle without any food or water.

At the end of Camp Pinnacle, we were given another talk before being presented with our badges in the parade square. Then, it was time for us to board the shuttle bus that would take us to the MRT Station. Many cadets would never forget the experience we gained during our 5 days there as we saw many things that not everyone could get to do so. Thus, we felt more privileged than the rest. It is almost impossible to forget the fun and good times that we had at PLC as well as the new friends that we made there. This has definitely been an enriching experience because we have learnt new things during the camp.

NATIONAL CAMP 2008

National Camp 2008 11th – 14th August 2008 National Camp, one of the prestigious camps that is organised on a biennial basis, allows members of the different youth uniformed groups in the schools to meet, interact and to share their experiences through participation in the various types of outdoor activities. The National Camp is also an exclusive activity undertaken by the youth groups to celebrate National Day. Hence, it is traditionally held immediately after National Day. The theme for this year’s National Camp, which was organised by the NPCC, was ‘Nurturing Youths@World.Singapore' and it was chosen to reflect their intent to help nurture and mould the youths into rugged individuals. The camp was held at Camp Resilience at Pulau Ubin. Day 1: When I reached Camp Resilience, there was already this ‘National Camp’ atmosphere as the place was decorated with a lot of banners and there were pictures of cadets from different uniformed groups. Upon reaching, I was assigned to Group Alpha. First, while waiting for President S R Nathan to arrive, we had this Ice-breaking game to start bonding us together. We also learnt a few cheers and soon enough, some of us were already talking to each other. After the National Camp was declared open, we were brought to our assigned tentages and let me tell you, it was the first time that I slept in a real tentage, and not those that one can buy in a bag, and there was indeed lots of ‘National Geographic’ in my tent. For the first day, we had team building games and low rope courses. I will just elaborate on one of the games that we played. There is this game ‘Water Pipe’ organised by the Girls’ Brigade. Our team had to build a pipe using materials given and transport water from one point to another. However, there were holes in the pipe, thus making it more difficult, and at some time the pipe broke and all the water just flows out. We had lots of fun as all of us had our shoes drenched and we also learnt that it will not be possible to transport all the water unless we work together. After having our dinner, all of us went back to sleep and that’s all for the first day. Day 2: After having a heavy breakfast, we went for rock climbing and went through the maze, organised by NPCC, and nature walk, organised by the Red Cross. For the rock climbing, I did not manage to finish it as it is just too difficult and when I went down, my hands were trembling as I had overstressed my muscles. Next, we went into an underground maze. The instructors told us to enter a hole and they immediately shut the entrance when all of us were in there. Let me tell, although it was afternoon at that time, but there was not even a single trace of light and it was very creepy to be the first and last person, as you will not know when you will be touched! Finally, we found our way through and it was happy to be able to see light. From this game, I indeed experienced what does it feel like to be blind, and learnt to treasure my eyes even more. After having lunch, we went for kayaking, organised by NCC (Sea) and Water confidence jump, organised by the NPCC. The kayaking was fun and the water confidence jump was quite exciting. This activity is whereby you will be wearing life jackets and will need to jump off a plank. This activity is to allow some of us to conquer the fear of water. After that, all of us were famished and tired, so we had our dinner and went to sleep. Day 3: All of us woke up to an exciting morning as our first station was the archery range. We were able to use different kind of archery, and learnt that in order to get a bull’s eye, one has to adopt a position, and the bow must be pulled at an angle. We also tried out various intermediate rope courses and I admit it is certainly more challenging than the rope courses that I had encountered before. At night, it was time for the closing ceremony and all of us sang the campfire cheer. We certainly had a great time. Day 4: This day was the day whereby all of us dreaded the most. It was the day whereby we bid farewell to each other and thus might not have the chance to see each other again. Before we left, my group, Alpha, sang the song ‘Graduation by Vitamin C’ and most of us were in tears as we hugged each other, before having to report to our various uniformed groups. After that, we sat on a ferry and went back to Singapore. Well, I had indeed learnt a lot from this National Camp and will certainly cherish the times in National Camp and to those that are pondering as to whether to join National Camp in 2 years’ time, let me tell you ‘Go for it !’ By: SSG Tan Qi Guang Part C IC '08 Part A IC '09

Change of date for interview for Pearce Air Base Visit and Glider Course

All Part C cadets who have or are applying for the Pearce Air Base Visit and Glider Course, please note that the date for the interview has been brought forward to the 20th , instead of the 26th Nov 2008. Though the date has changed, the selection criteria has not. ONLY SHORTLISTED CANDIDATES WILL BE NOTIFIED TO GO FOR THE INTERVIEW. Since the closing date for application is 19th, I think you will be notified about your status before or on the 19th itself. Consequently, those who did not receive any would naturally mean that they are not selected. All the best to all the applicants! :P

SBAB ATTACHMENT 2008

A group of 1 senior specalist and 6 Specialists attended the SBAB attachment from 12 to 14 Nov 2008. It was really a good experience as we had the privilege to tour around and look at different parts of RSAF’s weapons, vehicles and aircraft.

On 12 Nov, we first proceeded to the Officers’ Mess where we were introduced to RSAF aircrafts and learnt about their various uses. After which, we had the CH-47 (Chinook) joyride. Although the ride lasted for only 15 mins, it was an experience of a lifetime as the enormous tail door was not closed during the entire flight, leaving us exposed to the outside even when the Chinook was airborne, giving us an excellent view of the island. Safety was not much of a worry as the safety officer on duty ensured that we were secure during the flight.

On 13 Nov, we learnt about the different equipment that RSAF used and how they maintained the standards of their aircraft. We then experienced 2 different aircraft simulators where the virtual effects felt really real.

On 14 Nov, we visited Chong Pang camp where we were introduced to mainly RSAF ground equipment and weapons by the officers and specialists.

With this, I conclude the end of my report on this year’s attachment.
