What say I raise the Regiment that I would be happiest to serve in? What say if I could turn the clock back? What say I could pick and choose the officers and ARTY directorate would have no say?
My Reality Distortion Field Syndrome aside, I would interview all candidates for my Regiment. I would do an utopian lineup like George Orwell, and parade them for selection for the various appointments in a time wrapped Regiment comprising an HQ and 4 Gun Btys.
My criteria for selection would be based on the following traits and talents:
Integrity, Leadership, Charisma, Responsibilities, Talent, Knowledge, Sportmanship, Fun, Compassion and of course Gunnery. And in that order for weightage and balance.
CO – Mustapha Saad (Musty)
2IC – Tony Morel
Adjutant – Hung Meng
Assistant Adjutant – Ghazali (King Gus)
QM Gen – Zahir
QM Tech - Harun
4X BCs, Tan Say Loke, Oh Teng Lim, Hew Deng Onn, and Omar Mohammad
4X BK, David Lam, Heera Singh, Maskan Katan, and Aris Salim
8X Troop commanders, Ho Wah Juan, Chong Kok Heng, Ramachandran, Masoud (Timmy), Albert Manaseh, Ganeson, Tan Guan Gui and Yusri
8X GPOs/Section commanders, Aziddin, Maniam (Apu), Chandran, Satwan Singh, Azahar, Mokhtar Pereman, Allen Lai and for Senior Subaltern – Tony Chia(Anthonysamy)
It would be an awesome Regiment. No?
Unfortunately other Gunners may not have the opportunity to serve in this Regiment, but then they could always raise their Regiment of choice.
What say?
COL ALLEN LAI
