Early bird are always rewarded with good things

Today is the start of Protection Of Installation. As early as 0300 hrs, my vehicle to rifle range camp has already reported. We left at around 0320 hrs or so. The expressway was so quiet! Not much cars traveling on the road. We were too early as planned but we wasted a lot of time waiting for the duty personnel to wake up ad send us into the ammo dump to collect the bloody rounds. the road was dark pitch because all the lamp post were spoilt!

After i collected the rounds, i headed to CIA (Changi International Airport). No matter how slow the driver drive, i still reach early... there and than i saw the most horrifying thing! The sentry looking after the police station was actually taking a nap! I wanted to be nasty and ask my escort, saravanan, to ask him if he had a sweet dream just now, that was just NATO, (No Action, Talk Only).

Soon, the troop lift bus arrived and they started to march in to the sleepy, no govt police station at Changi Airport. Their first duties starts at 0800 hours... After i send in the ammo, i headed back to camp and had lunch with ranger and again, i do my favourite pastime, SLEEP!
