My NCC Land training...( something that took place in school)


On last Friday in school, I had my CCA, which is NCC Land, training. For this training, I must say it was very tough and tiring. We had our drills training immediately after we fell in. When our sergeants first said "sedia" the hard and tiring time started.
In less than five minutes time, we had our first scolding, our staff sergeant started shouting"What kind of standard is this?Better do your drills properly or else you will watch out!", but still, the scolding did not wake us up. In another five minutes time, "KNOCK IT DOWN THIRTY!" our staff sergeant roared in a voice of thunder.Then, we were split into three groups. For me, I was split into a group of six, which included my best friend since primary one, his name is Ahmad Aquashah.
My friend is an obedient son, student and a fellow cadet, he follows whatever his parents and seniors say and always thinks they are right. I must say that he is both good in academic and in CCA. His drills are far better than mine.
Let's go back to the training...When we were split into groups, there was a sergeant in charge of us. The sergeant in charge of us is known for his bad temper. Every time we walk where we are supposed to run he would start shouting"WALK SOME MORE!" and every time we do not our drills properly, he would shout vulgarities.
Just five minutes of drills, we got our first scolding from him and we got knocked down another fifteen. The training continued for another one hour.
For us, I think that our problems mainly came from the fact that we could not co-ordinate our drills, for example, when we bang, it is not always a solid bang. Another reason is that when we march, we seeme not to be in line. I think that we must seriously improve our drills in order to score more CCA points.I am glad that we will get our Lance Corporal rank soon! NCC ROCKS!
