The week prior to this splendid block leave was certainly a hateful one. CO announced delightfully the battalion would once again 'prepare for war'. I cant be too specific about this. Hence, the battalion, more explicitly, people in my bunk, was shrouded in a cloak of suspense, or rather paranoia. Every anomaly, i.e seeing CO's, S2 and S3 cars still in the camp after office hours, rumours by highly 'reliable' ah hock sparked tension amongst us. Activation is no doubt one of most detested item on a soldier's agenda.

Nevertheless, I have more or less escaped unscathed. However, the damage has been done. People from the top have the desire to obtain top notched result in ATEC. Anyone who signed on would no doubt have that same inclination too. What about the men? We have no obligation to deliver the results. Afterall, what is required of us is to merely serve 2 years. We are in 2 different leagues altogether. Just because they have the authority and rank doesnt give them the right to impose their selfish ambitions on the men. Trust me, a backlash will soon ensue.

On a lighter note(not very heartening either), I've been mildly crippled by the pain from foot rot after the east coast run on tuesday. A lame excuse, hardly justifiable to put off marathon training for a couple of days. But trust me, its painful even when you walk, making running seem impossible. My stubborn self has finally relented, Im going to consult a doctor and get it cured once and for all.
