Interesting topic here. Brings to me flash back when i
[b]ACTUALLYhave to load
my rifle with five life rounds while on prowling. That year was
1999, i was only a coporal then so have to do prowling duty. I was
at 10 SIB, Selarang Camp. So what happen was when i was out on
prowling detail with my buddy, nearing the 9 Signal vehicle holding
shed when i thought i heard foot steps running. I thought i was
dreaming as it was 0200 hours in the morning so i asked my buddy
and he mentionned that he heard it too. As i was holding onto the
walkie, i coms back to guard room to ask for instruction and was
instructed to do a area check while the GC informed the BOS and DO.
as the foot steps was inside the shed, i have to leopard crawl in
and i ask my buddy to cover me. However, as i was crawling in under
the gate, both my buddy and i heard voices in hokkien saying faster
run, kena spotted already!" also at the same time, i heard tin cans
dropping onto the floor.
Without hestitation, i immediately load my rifle with five rounds
and ask my buddy to take cover while i coms back guard Room and
report to the GC what has just happened. Was told that BOS and DO
on the way and told to stay put at my location while Stand To was
activated.
Soon later, the BOS and the DO arrived with the GC and together
withnthem, we comb the area and found that part of the fence was
actually pried open and that there were tin cans on the floor. As
the shed contains some TS equipment(signal Stuff), Do ordered
another round of check while the BOS coms the guard room asking
them to remain on high alert.
After about fifteen minutes, nothing else was found to be amiss and
stand to cleared. The BOS cleared both the arms of me and my buddy
and we were asked to write a detail report about what has
happened.
ome to think of it now, it's rather fun.

empty tin cans? or is it canned food?
