FIRE - March Camp 2010
The Three Platoons have come a long way, crossing obstacles and overcoming challenges through the generations. A new challenge awaits, with new members and new experiences. With the parting of the Sec 3s, the path ahead may seem hazy, but bursting with new vigour and courage, the platoons are going to go all out fighting for their platoons this March Camp!
3 different platoons. 3 separate paths. ONE common goal. Fight as ONE. Win as ONE. You all have the flame burning inside yourselves - but it's time to add fuel to that flame and make it stronger.
FIRE - Ignite the soul!

FDCom 2010
We fought. We entertained. We won.
Every drop of sweat that our bodies have profusely exuded for FDCom'10 will be remembered by our homeground. Our homeground knows how much pain our minds have gone through just to stay alert and ignore the salt in your eyes, how much pain our feet have gone through marching all around Raja Block Foyer and the Parade Square under the scorching sun, how much pain our arms have gone through trying to achingly keep up with the precise 90 and 45 degree arm-swings. Though these are not known by the judges, we know. We gave our best, did our best and showed them who we are.
We know how much money we have spent on drinks just to hydrate yourselves and refresh your mind. We know how much practice you all have done to perfect your moves. We know you sacrificed your free time for the unit.
Anxiety, Relief, Exuberance: These ARE the emotions we went through on 6th March 2010 - all to aim for the Championship trophy. Though our dreams were not fulfilled, at the end of the day, look at the path we have passed - you will get a sense of satisfaction. Do not think we lost to another school. Know that we won, we've won 3rd place. Same concept of whether you consider a glass half-full or half-empty.
Soon, we will be having ArtsFest'10. So, keep your spirits high and show the other schools who we are.
FACom'09 : 2nd runners up
FDCom'10 : 2nd runners up

FDCOM
We have bought countless drinks, we have sweat more than one would guess. We have swung, we have banged, we have saluted.
(And we have KYX!)
Now we're here. We're here to give everyone a show that they won't forget.
Just relax and focus, give it your all, give it your best.
Have fun.
No matter what happens, if we've done all we could, I think we'd all be satisfied.
Tomorrow.
As KYX says: PARTYTIME!
We'll see you there, and we're not going down in our home without a fight.

Attendance Matters
Hi everyone,
This is for those who have not turned up for trainings and not submitted their excuse letters/MCs to any of the Sec 4s yet. Please submit them latest by next Wednesday (10th March) to Jason sir, or any of the Sec 4s. After this deadline, we will not be chasing for any more proofs of excuse and you will be marked as "absent" for the relevant trainings.
This is especially important for Sec 2s and 3s who have not been promoted during AON (last year's November camp), as we may be factoring in recent attendance records for the upcoming March camp promotions.
For those who have always turned up for trainings, good job and keep it up :) for those who haven't, just put in that little more effort to come as well.
Hope to see everyone down this Saturday!

Some Thoughts
Hey everyone,
This post isn't only targeted at the Sec 1s, but also anyone else who might be feeling that RC life is getting a little too dry for them.
Well, here's my 10 cents worth, you can choose to read on if you want... (I know this is going to sound like a post from theUNIchannel but here goes)
Once upon a time, not too long ago, I was a Sec 1 just like how all of you are/were. Back then, we had 8 CCA choices - 2 MGs, 4 sports, 2 UGs. I'm not really updated on the current system now, but I think it's not too different from what my batch had, except now there are 9 choices.
Anyway, back then, I had put RC as my 7th (yes, SEVENTH) choice. Reason being, I hated the sound of UGs back then - drills, PT, etc. Basically, there really wasn't anything that made me interested in them. Furthermore, I was personally inclined more towards music (although then having little musical background), and didn't see how UGs would make a difference to me.
Hence, when the CCA allocations were released, I was pretty disappointed to be honest. I wanted to make an appeal to change to another CCA (my 1st choice happened to be RIGE). That never happened simply because I was too lazy.
And so I stayed in RC. Back then, the training style was much tougher than how it is today (and even tougher before that). Just ask anyone from B59 and before to testify how life was like when B56 and earlier batches were holding the reins. Won't dwell too much on that in case it turns you off or brings back traumatic memories :P
Time passed by really quickly. Perhaps just yesterday I was in that Seminar Room listening to Mrs. Ang go on and on about how RC wasn't as bad as it sounded. And now, we're a mere 1 week away from FDCOM 3 years later when everyone's really trying to put our best foot forward.
You're probably going to ask, what did you actually gain from RC? I'm not going to give you politically correct rubbish or a smoked answer. I'm just going to answer with what I personally feel.
In RC, you get to meet all sorts of people - slackers, hardworking people, pessimists, optimists, visionaries, people with attitude problems, heartless people - the list is endless. You'll eventually have to deal with everyone in one way or another - whether as seniors when you're cadets, batchmates, as cadets when you're NCOs, or even teachers. Many people hate working with people who don't click (yes, I admit sometimes even I do), but face it, you're going to be stuck with them for quite awhile. Likewise in the real world, you can't fire your boss you don't like, you can't fire your colleague whom you think is an idiot, you can't fire an employee just because you hate how he works. You'll see that RC in a way really emulates the situation out there, and of sorts prepares you for the real world, opens up your mind.
Then there's the 6 core subjects. I'll just bring up FD this time, because if I carry on too long I'm going to be late for training ._.
FD at first glance may seem boring and dry and regimental, but if you look deeper, you'll begin to see how it really brings out the trust between every single squad member as well as the commander, and how tight the squad has to be with regards to teamwork. A truly good FD squad would be able to place enough trust in the commander that they blindly execute any command he or she gives, knowing that it will be correct. Likewise, the commander can give any correct command knowing that the squad will execute it perfectly and without any mistakes.
Don't worry, I'm ending soon.
Look beyond the simple things, look beyond short term gains. Perhaps you won't get it - I didn't when I was Sec 1, Sec 2 or even Sec 3. However, now I do.
RC is more than a CCA - it shapes people, it makes people better. Many of us aren't going to remember or use polynomial functions when we're out there - it's more of how we're able to adjust ourselves to each other, how to accommodate each other, how we work as a team, whether now or in the future.
But I'm not going to force this on your thoughts, because that's just how I feel :) don't worry too much about it.
I'll leave it to you to guess who I am, but if you do find out, don't spoil the surprise for others :D
Cheers, and see you in 30 minutes time.

As for the rest, while you are eagerly awaiting your SFA certs (even b59 hasn't gotten theirs >_>), do keep your FA knowledge in mind - it's what makes us who we are!
For the Batch 59 people, do remember to thank THC for helping you guys with your learning...I'm sure all of you tried your best - just seize the next chance to get your SFA, yeah?

Training Updates
Ohai!
Just a review of what happened today:
Sec 1s learnt Human Stretcher, advance and halt, plus the definition of Evacuation.
"Transporting a casualty from a place of danger to a place of safety"
Played a game called E-pac-uation, where they run around in a maze with a casualty against each other to touch a mobile guy labeled "Safety", while running away from a mobile guy labeled "Danger".
Did 50 push ups at the end to train up muscles for evac. Sick =D
Sec 1s also learnt Basic Immobilisation of the legs for fracture cases.
Sec 2s prepared for SFA. Good luck to you guys!! This Friday's the day!

FDCOM
Hey everyone!
Just in case you still don't know, FDCOM is held on 6th of March (Saturday), on our very own Parade Square.
For the Sec 1s info (and those who still do not know), FDCOM stands for the National Footdrill Competition, held once a year in Term 1. There are 2 rounds to this competition: Round A, the preliminaries, and Round B, the finals.
In Round A, the commander will have to maneuver the 15-man squad in a designated area using a set of 30 commands, and any additional commands if required, to end up at an allocated spot in the same area. The 30 commands consist of various commands from Footdrill Bronze to Gold.
In Round B, the squad (including reserves if needed) will have to display a full set of self-choreographed open-array drills, with the aid of any song from 3 to 5 minutes.
This year, there are a total of 31 Red Cross Youth units from all over Singapore participating. Each school will send 16 to 21 representatives, consisting of 1 commander, 15 main squad members, and up to 5 reserves.
The list of our participants is as follows:
Ke Yuxuan (squad commander, chief trainer)
Jason Chia (assistant chief trainer)
Jeremy Teoh
S. Saravanan
Tan Yan Tyng
Daniel Siew
Wong Li Hong
Lim Han Sheng
Ng Jee Kinn
Chan Hui Jun
Nyan Soe Lwin
Darryl Lee
Ryan Lim
See Wei Yang
George Lin
Gabriel Tan
Jee Kai Yen (reserve)
Do cheer all our participants on during this busy period as the competition date draws nearer and nearer :) if you're interested to see how things are done, you can just drop by the parade square after every training, while getting a drink at the canteen.
For Sec 1s, your chance will come next year, so do work hard at your footdrill skills when the lessons finally begin!
What do we see? We see a throng of RIRC people, uniform-clad or not, gathered on our very soil with the champion trophy and challenge shield in the middle. Yet, it is not the trophy that truly matters, but the fact that our blood and sweat for three months will finally have paid off.
We're nearing there guys. Just a little further. Let's do this.

Do cheer all our participants on during this busy period as the competition date draws nearer and nearer :) if you're interested to see how things are done, you can just drop by the parade square after every training, while getting a drink at the canteen.
For Sec 1s, your chance will come next year, so do work hard at your footdrill skills when the lessons finally begin!
What do we see? We see a throng of RIRC people, uniform-clad or not, gathered on our very soil with the champion trophy and challenge shield in the middle. Yet, it is not the trophy that truly matters, but the fact that our blood and sweat for three months will finally have paid off.
We're nearing there guys. Just a little further. Let's do this.
BRING IT ON!

Yay for 3 new Vis from RI lol
cant find a picture of Xin Yan, too far away at the back
Woo RI Vis ftw! Hanif(b55), Clarence (b52), Qiwen(b55), Guo Zhong(b54) absent. By da way the guy that you don't know in the picture above is Zaidi, chairperson of b52.thanks to his ideas and vision, RIRC stops running the strict regimental style, and he was the one who initiated the idea of the platoon system. Becoz of him, we are who we are now.
Well I hope i can get him to come down for the upcoming Performance night, June camp and POP. sayonaras!

Haiti Earthquake
An earthquake measuring 7.3 on the Richter scale struck Haiti on 12 January. It has primarily affected the capital Port-au-Prince and other areas in the West Province which has an estimated population of 2.2 million.
The Haitian Red Cross volunteers have been working around the clock since the quake struck, despite the personal losses that many of them have suffered. More than 400 Red Cross and Red Crescent staff from other countries have arrived in Port-au-Prince since the earthquake.
So far, almost 80 tonnes of Red Cross Red Crescent aid has either landed at the Port-au-Prince airport, or has been sent overland from Santo Domingo in the neighbouring Dominican Republic.
Red Cross Red Crescent emergency appeal seeks 105 million Swiss francs (103 million USD/73 million euro) to assist 300,000 people for three years.

And that is why, we need to do out part guys. Read the post after this one. XD
"...and to join others all over the world, to help the sick and the suffering."
Little Challenge
Hello Sec 2s!
I guess now that you guys are all slacking around at home, (except for omega lol) you might have noticed the RC posters circling around the school...the suffering and unhappiness, while here we are reading this blog and enjoying your chairs and computers and feeling the mouse or mousepad or wtv.
Lets do something for the world!
Gather up your platoons and come up with a CIP which you can do in school. All proceeds will go to various charity organizations in Singapore
Budget: $0.
Duration: 2 weeks maximum during Term 1.
Participants in your CIP: Your platoon, your Platoon Mentor and some sec 3s and 4s
Ideas for inspiration:
Create cool Tshirt designs and sell
Sell bubble tea
make a performance and collect donations
sell craft work
do chores for the neighborhood
Think through of what you wanna do, and tell us during this upcoming training. For epsilon, send a representative at 3:30pm to talk to us about your idea.
Once approved, we will handle all the necessary work for you and we will start the CIP!
Get to work guys! And work together as a platoon! For the community and for the sick and the suffering! XD
"The world needs you. Are you there?"

Sec 2 Stuffs
Heyho sec 2s!
Please take note of the following thingies to bring for all trainings from Wednesday onwards:
1. A Blue file(the plastic ones that you can put notes inside)
2. 2 triangular bandages with your name
3. A waterbottle. any kind. any size. as long as you got water in it.
Just to sum things up for trainings and for Iota peeps:
1. Be professional and move fast always. Dont Drag. Your dear sec 1s are coming in soon. So be a role model...
2. For first aid lessons, fall in in 2 rank. Front guy is casualty, back guy is first aider.
3. Team Leader will be selected every training (something like a Day IC). He is in charge of:
- Giving instructions passed down from Sec 4s
- Checking strength
- Get everyone organized, like sitting arrangement, pushing chairs to the sides, asking for permission to enter classroom, greeting sec 4s as a group etc
Remember, you're not the juniors anymore. So start acting like a senior. Its cool to be a senior if you know how to be cool like us. Cool maanzz!
By the time the sec 1s come in (around week 5), the Sec 4s and I will ensure that you're pro enough to lead a group into missions with the proper skills and professionalism. But it won't happen unless you wanna improve yourselves too!
Think about it ;)
See you on Wed! - Hadi

RIRC FA Syllabus
Hey all,
our internal FA syllabus can be downloaded via the 4shared box-thingy on the right.
Just an overview of the whole thing:
FA (B) covers basic bandages as well as really simple theory.
FA (S) is an extension of the SFA syllabus - with scenarios thrown in! If you can clear this SFA shouldn't be a problem.
FA (G) is close to FACOM standard; also, it'll teach you how to teach FA.
So for Sec2s, you'll be taking Bronze and Silver sometime in Term 2.
Sec3s well you'll find out later.
Do note that this being an internal thing, there is no HQ equivalent thus don't go around telling all your friends from other units about it.
Happy reading!
N.B. the individual syllabi for each level of proficiency will be uploaded soon/eventually/when I feel like it.

The Trophy
"The trophy doesn't reflect the winning. The trophy reflects the huge amount of effort put in by each individual for the competition. It reflects the fusion of these efforts. It reflects the team spirit. But most importantly, it reflects the tenacity, altruism and the close friendship and trust each person has with the other. Winning together after a long hard journey of sweat and tears...it's definitely an unforgettable moment.
Watch the full video and you might understand, although no one will until he goes through it himself.
This happened before on 3 March, 2006. Lets make it happen again on 6 March 2010. Homeground. FDC 2010.
Bring it On people!!"

Week 8 Training
Hi all,
There will be training next week as usual, on Monday (2/11) and Wednesday (4/11), same place. Timing will be after school + 15 min (and 30 min lunch if applicable) - timing will be confirmed over the weekend.
If you do not come for these trainings without a valid excuse WITH proof, your ranks will be at stake (i.e. not get promoted, ranks obtained during POC will be confiscated), as there will be very important stuff done and covered during these two trainings.
It's after EOY, so you probably have nothing much to do anyway.
Briefings for further events during the holidays will be done during the two trainings.
And yes, I am NOT joking about the ranks thing.
See you next week :)

Happy Deepavali!
Let us share the joy of having 1 extra day to mug and celebrate Deepavali with our Indian friends!!!
Happy Deepavali and congrats if you still have been surviving for the past 2 days!
P.S. In case you don't know who I am, I am in fact sad about the fact Deepavali falls during the EOY period because I don't have 1 extra day like most of you do :(

Change of Guards Along Orchard Road
Hi all!
For those of you who wish to take a break from mugging, and see some cool Drills and Fancy drills in action, come down to the SAF Change of Guards. Its basically a procession where the new guards of the Istana (where the President dwells) take over the old guards for the new month. You'll get to see them march for about 1-2km along Orchard Road to the Istana, and see the ceremony in action, together with a spectacular fancy drill performance.
Date: 4 October (Sunday)
Time: 5:30pm (Ceremony starts exactly at 5:45pm)
Starting Place: The road in between The Paragon and Grand Park Orchard
How to go there: Take MRT to Somerset Station and walk.
Ending Place: The Istana (nearest MRT station is Dhouby Ghaut)
Ending Time: 6:15pm (approximate)
Just a little cool fact: Hadi will be there riding the Military Police Bike escorting the parade, so you finally see what he does in NS. =D
Its for the public, so bring your family and friends, or come together as a platoon or batch if you wish! Good opportunity to see good footdrill, so hope you'll take a look!
Some excerpts:
You'll be there..in NS..one day..no one can run away muahaha
