Hi all,

This is a REMINDER.(so this will be in extra large fonts)

Pls hand in your CARP form TOMORROW, 24/3, Tuesday, 2nd day of

Term2 to NCOs AFTER FLAG RAISING AT THE TKK STATUE.

Ya so make sure its signed. The CARP thing will be held on EVERY SATURDAY STARTING FROM 28/3(THIS SATURDAY).
Venue:Sunlove Abode for Intellectually Infirmed Ltd
(address: 70 Buangkok View, Buangkok Green Medical Park, Singapore 534190).
Time: from 9am to 12pm
Cadets are to make their own way there and meet PUNCTUALLY.
Ok....
About the hugging thing, since Zhen Quan sir has agreed to do it, so its ok I guess, but dont go too far. Show some respect to them as seniors! :)

Wenhao

(cant go to sleep, so i'll just post.)

Hi all,

Reminder:
#1) Spring Cleaning on THIS COMING MONDAY 23 MARCH 2009. YES ITS TOMORROW. 2pm to 5pm. Attire is PE SHIRT, KHAKI SHORTS, WHITE SOCKS. Bring along a rag and newspapers.

#2)Reflection on Today's Gala Dinner Marshalling: Send a email to Hongliang sir's email address by WEDNESDAY, 9.59PM (to be safe).
Maybe everyone send by 9pm to avoid any internet congestion or whatever thing that can happen. 300 words at least, so just type it out in MS Word and get word count, copy paste into email.

Ya, So thats about it... AND pls stop the bearhugging thing....
In my opinion, its seriously childish and inhumane. Imagine yourself being tied by a rope and forcing you to walk. Eeeeeee...
Hug maybe can la. 1 second enough. Theres no need for you to while hugging, walk around, do this, do that. Its awful. Put yourself in the victim's shoes :(
One more thing, during the Gala Dinner the song "Peng You". For heaven's sake during the music interlude if you want to say the "bom bom xxxx xxxx" thing, PLS just MUTE YOU VOLUME. Its was seriously darn obvious la. There goes the school's reputation.

Wenhao

Please attend an important briefing on Tuesday at 2pm in LT4. The
briefing will take about an hour. It is important for you to attend

(SOME CHANGES HAS BEEN MADE)


Hi all,

Ya, as suggested by Nicholas sir,
the following will be the list of theorys for knots !
MUST REVISED HARD HARD ORH! :)
so that all P/LCP becomes LCP, and CDT still remains CDT :(, like me! :)
k, stop beating about that bush.
pls correct (just edit it lol.) or add anything that I have left out/typed wrongly :)


THEORY :)
(P.S. MOST OF THIS WERE TAKEN FROM THE ENTHU EMAIL EITHER ME OR JOHN SENT, ONLY MADE CHANGES TO THOSE THAT HE MENTIONED TODAY.)

- Reef Knot
- For tying bandage

- Tie 2 ropes of equal thickness
- Tie 2 ends of a plastic bag together


- Sheet Bend
- Tie 2 ropes of different thickness together
- Tie a rope to a loop or hook
- Tie a flag to a flagline

- Sheep Shank
- For easy keeping
- For shortening the rope
- Prevent strains on worn out parts of the rope

- Bowline
- Used in rescuing purposes
- Used in tent pitching ( tied to the dolly)
- To form a loop

- Fisherman's Knot
- Join together 2 wet,slippery, or smooth ropes of similiar thickness
- Used to mend a fishing net
- Used to tie a flag to a flagline

- Figure of Eight Knot
- Tie to the sail of the yacht
- Stopper knot to prevent rope from passing through a loop or hook
- Stopper knot to prevent fraying
- To make a handhold for a wet rope

- Clove Hitch
- To start all lashings except diagonal lashing
- Used in tent pitching (tied to the pin of the vertical pole)
- Tie a rope to a railing

- Timber Hitch
- Useful for dragging logs back to a campfire.
- To start a diagonal lashing
- can be loosened to fit in more logs and tightened again to secured again

* Lashings - Courtesy of John's email (dun mind i use uh)

Round lashing
tying two spars together side by side.
start with clove hitch tied around both sparswind around the two spars. tightly.
after every turn use ur thumb to press it down.
make sure its so tight that ur finger cnt go in. XD

Square lashing.
Quite .... a few disputes over how it should be tied. =X
haix. jus stick with the old one...(:
but. frappings dont overdo it. it will only wekaen it if frappings are overdone *hint*
next. poles are set at 90 degrees.
largely similar to diagonal lashing. jus tat diagonal lashing has the poles set at an acute angle.
clove hitch must be started and ended on different poles

Diagonal Lashing
only lashing with timble hitch as a starting.
end with clove hitch. dun end with timble hitch.
comparatively weaker to square lashing. jus tat.
it... shouldnt be much of a problem if tied correctly.

Sheer lashing.
^^. they didnt write any method. but. i jus brief through generally.
1. start by tying a clove hitch around the two poles. standing end.. the tip make it face up and pull it to the top.
2. keep winding around the two poles. and cover the standing end. make sure that the width of the two poles= thickness of the windings.
3. end with a clove.scissors leg lashing. can be spread out. if u wan to not make it spread. u can tie a clove again. although tat defeats the purpose of sheer lashing.

(Credit to John! )

Ya, so good luck in your upcoming retest! Remember Tingyit sir want 100% passes :)

Wenhao

Dear Sec 2s,

You are to come in unit T-shirt and track pants for the campcraft revision training tomorrow.

Gather at 1540h. Training should end by 1720h.

Try to bring along twine for tomorrow's training.

So far, Zhen Quan sir told me that only John cannot come for the training tomorrow. If you have not emailed us about not coming for tomorrow's training, here's your chance to do so.

Regards,

Nicholas Tang

random photo

whose in charge of this blog???
can use this photo..... =D

our dear NCOs...
cyas =D

Ok guys,

A few things to address:

1) IMPORTANT: Reply to Zhen Quan sir's email ASAP on the dates for the extra campcraft trainings! Dun put him on a spot hor :)

2) The sub-i/c thingy, someone said that Yong Rui is in 2O2, and i just realised it is XD Sorry for the mix up. I went to the Attendance/Promotions thingy to check the classes and they out there Yong Rui was in 2O3. [NCOs take note! :)]

3) Boots.....
Make them shiny! I used Randy's method and believe me, it works like god. A few things to note though. After burning the kiwi must wait for a period of time and then use a wet cloth to wipe. DUN IMMEDIATELY WIPE. IT WILL SCREW YOUR BOOTS LIKE HELL. And of course dun wait too long also.. If not wun be effective liao XD

Yea so thats about it. Remeber to check your emails regularly!!

Wenhao :)
