haha yeah so we did lotsa shit in camp... like we got turnout at 4am to go for the confidence jump off the 5m high diving platform wearing long 4 then climed up the ocs tower 265 steps... den we played with the MOPP 4 suit which is for chemical defence. damn uncomfortable... den wear it with the gas mask and went into a gas chamber filled with tear gas. then we had to do some exercises inside to make sure we donned the suit properly. then we also had to take off our mask n shout out our name n ic no before we can exit. walao now i noe the power of tear gas.... not funny sia. hahaha yeah
