Today Is the Tomorrow I was Taking about Yesterday.
Today marks the 50th annniversary of the NPCC.
Students say they like me better in uniform,
As a cadet in the past and in the present an Officer,
Adjutent to OC. Rifles & pistols being my favourite,
Never ending camps from then til now. Trained first aider,
and still a range officer. Have you seen a gun
someone asked me once. Trophies Ive won in competitions for
officers. Its been 2 years since the last. Time passes,
responsibilities changes, age catches up, been there done
that, now its time to pass on to the freshmen who joined.
No more camps in Ubin, no more sleeping in safari beds under
moonlight. No more muster parades, range duties, orienteering,
high elements nor hikes. Its time for me pass out with my 2nd
batch of cadets. That marks the end of 8 years as an officer.
The future will not see me as the woman in blue again.
