Finally, after 20 years since I left the service in 2003, someone from the Ranger Regiment Corp added me to the X-RRD Officer’s WhatsApp Group on the night of September 12, 2023, inviting me to attend a Hi-Tea organized at 1 RRD Wardieburn Camp during Malaysia Day on September 16. Yes, finally, after 20 years.
Ops Jaga Kawan, Bakalalan Sarawak. 1992
I still remember back then, as a civilian, I received a call from SO2 RRD at that particular time, asking if I could come for an interview with the Infantry Director. Politely, I replied, “I’m very sorry, Sir. Thank you very much. I’m busy.” I explained that I had eagerly awaited an interview with the director during my time in service, even during the Peralihan Course at PERHEBAT. It seemed I had been forgotten, being nobody, and nobody was concerned. It’s okay to be forgotten by my own corps. Now, all of a sudden, after 20 years, all those memories reappeared. Yes, finally, after 20 years.
Ops at Ahning Dam, Kuala Nerang, Kedah 1995
Anyway, at that time, my short service commission ended exactly after I served 13 years and 8 months, as I never applied for regularship. It was a wonderful experience to serve with the same infantry battalion twice, the 5th Royal Ranger Regiment in Bau, Sarawak, and in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. All those memories during operations, especially in Sarawak, have never been forgotten. That’s all my thought. Agi Idup Agi Ngelaban.
Salam YBhg Dato, Sir n my lovely fren.
