| FACTS :What you didn't know. |
| Some of you may know that Vincent was in Commando 3rd Company during his NS. * But did you know 3rd Company's motto is "Courage Dispels Fear'? |
| Vincent mentioned in MCS website that his worst cooking experience was roasting & eating a chicken which had dropped to the muddy jungle ground during his army jungle training. * But did you know that only the team with best performance got food rations like chicken, rice & water? (The others only get things like potatoes or rice & water. Good job Vince!) |
| Commandos lead extremely disciplined lifestyles esp. in the army. * But did you know that they have to synchronise their steps even if only 2 of them are walking from the bunk to the canteen? (Synchronised = both personels must move left feet at same time as in marching.) |
| The headgear that a Commando don is called a beret. * But did you know that only Commandos are entited to the prestigious red berets & they must be worn at all times in open spaces/without roofs? (If a personel forgot to wear it, the whole company will have to knock it down [ie. do push up] as punishment.) |
| Chin-ups & push-ups are essential training in the Army. * But did you know that Commandos must always do an extra one more than normal military standards? (eg. normal soldiers do 11 push -ups, a commando must, by hook or by crook, do at least 12! Similarly for any other physical training. This has to do with maintaining the prestige & intergrity of Commandos!) |

| Vincent lives in Jurong all his life. * But did you know that all the schools he attended are within walking distance (approximate radius of 5-8 km) from his home. In fact, even his Wushu training location ie. Jurong Town CC is also within walking distance. (This guy is really loyal to his 'roots'.) |
