Hey RIRC,

Batch 67 will be completing YABP (S), DM (S), FA (S) in the next training (some of you will have to take RCK (S)), while Batch 68 will be completing YABP (B), so do mug hard for this upcoming training. For Batch 68, you will have some homework to do regarding your YABP (B) accreds.

Top scorers will be awarded platoon points! This is your chance to do your platoon proud!

The rewards are:
1st: 200 platoon points
2nd: 150 platoon points
3rd: 100 platoon points

The winner for this term's IPC will be decided by the end of Term 3 (hopefully) and announced. Do expect actual rewards.

Good luck.
