i don't know why we got talking about ulu pandan, but that was where darryl was stationed during NS. i was astonished to discover darryl was at the school of military medicine. but i thought you were pes a? aren't medics usually pes b and below? they iodine knees and give people mc? (no they can't even do that, can they? it's the medical officers who are allowed to do that.) but he indignantly protested that he was higher up than your ordinary medic, and not only was he combat-fit he is the first on the frontlines rescuing the wounded. this rather sounds like when we found out about choonping being a combat engineer.

us: combat engineer? you mean you sit in an office with a set of building plans?

cp: hello, i'm out there building bridges and clearing mines when the infantry are still struggling into their green things.

poor, misunderstood darlings.
