yeah... i saw a nice pic taken of a ER round being shot...

 

i know henry... he was from HQ then went over to become Charlie's BSM... as for Raj, i heard of him before but never seen him... think he was posted out already... henry use to ride a KTM which he polishes every week... haha... that Chee oso got one XR4 parked near 'MARY's shop(the auntie at the spec mess)...

 

henry sold his KTM in the end and got a skipper while chee got himself a EVO VI...

How come you didn't see ER when you're in NZ? Busy with the food or browsing the prono mags at the mart?

 

That KTM almost mudered his wallet. I was his bunk mate last time, still owned him a big flavour till now haven return...

 

Chee is a speed addict. His XR4 should be plate-less one rite?

ya, was in gun 3 tat time

 

burst rate until hand and leg oso burst, hahaa

 

and the fh2000 which exploded in NZ

was my gun 3 (5611), before our detachment transfer to gun 5

 

si bei heng ah

That *&^% round weights 40kg! I'll never forget that.

 

The round can be carried by most ppl if appling the right technique. Though that doesn't mean your body can take it. My back has not been good is army.

haha... thats a good observation... but you're wrong... cos the whole QM platoon went to the target area where the ER rounds are suppose to land... we watched it with FOs... haha... nothing much one leh... wasted... should have gone to see them fire instead... but we saw one that caught fire and another that went overboard!! haha...

 

yeah... the KTM is his bao bei man... but i think he sold it at a relatively low price...

 

chee's XR4 ar, can't rem man... didn't really notice cos after he got his EVO, he seldom take it out to play...

I heard that morning the particular gun seems to refuse moving out of the garage? Or during transporation to NZ?

They say sometime the gun has a spirit...

 

My BSM (Edwin) demand us to respect the gun during his command time. We cannot sit nor sleep on the gun other than the driver and layer seat. "Take care of it, and it'll take care of you".

Whoever he caught sitting on the trial leg will definetly kenna. Officers included.

Cool, ironically I fired so many rounds (with plenty of signature and vulgarities written on it) but I've never see one landed.

oh i think so... if i'm not wrong.. thats his name i think... quite sad...

[Guest max_nhk]

He's Charlie's BRO during 9th mono. Capable but too confident.

 

Reckless rider, heard he travel at 40-60km/h in camp. Had a bad crash once on his cls2, broke his collar bone and bike gone. But I guess he didn't learn his lesson...

 

Ya ever tried this?

Being quite a rule breaker myself. I rode round camp helmet-less quite a few times, it's pretty shiok. Ya tried that before? 50km/h above and you can't hear a thing anymore.

 

Wanted to borrow a scrambler into sa-da but never did...

[Mark Ng]

yo guys, 20SA 10th mono intake here, (now also 284SA)...
