So that's how it feels like being a walker...
It's really an once-in-a-lifetime experience,
where we can walk the juniors and teach them things we've picked up through the past 1 year plus as a Cdo (which I realize is actually quite a lot); encourage them (especially the one that fall out) to push on; (poke the ass of a Captain. LOL); look into our past.
Anyway, though that prove NOT to be our last outfield as a NSF, it's still rather fun and memorable (especially the rain -.- which made me deploy my Goretex second time in my Cdo career) and I definitely do not regret going despite having to endure the rain and shine while I was sick and getting all the heat rash when we return, not forgetting the shoulder and leg aches (Cui, lol).
Like a boss!

Good or bad, we got activated and have to return back to mainland halfway through the exercise (to partake in something bigger), so we didn't have the chance to experience the full package...
