What's a mess tin and a stove? at 5/31/2009 09:31:00 pm

Here are a few pictures to help answer the Part A's questions on what is a stove or mess tin.

This is a picture of two Mess Tins. They can be bought at the army shop at Tampines or Bedok. They come in sets of two.

This is a picture of a stove and some solid fuel tablets (hexamine). They can also be bought at the army shop. The white cubes are solid fuels, and the metal structure is the stove. They are sold separately in the army shops.

15th Anniversary Mural Painting Project at 5/22/2009 10:48:00 pm

Cadets who are involved in the Mural Painting Project are supposed to write your reflections in a piece of paper and hand it up to me. (S1 or AS1)

I will then post it on the blog.

I think the mural painting is great! it pulls the relationship of our friends together or rather closer... It gives us a feeling that we should contribute to the public...we made their block a more enjoyable place! I think that this project made ncc cadets who participate closer and know more about them!
