NDP ZeroSiX Ends, and goes Team-Blog-based!

Dear Cadets and Instructors,

National Day Parade 2006 came to an end on 9th of August 2006. All the hard work put into the Marching Contingent has paid off and were recognized and commended.

A post-parade party was prepared for all Cadets and Instructors with 200 red and white balloons, bottles of sparkling juices, a buffet spread and countless effort, hours, tears and sweat put into preparing these.

Some 76 Angels received their Angel Ranks from their Mortals on the party as well. There was a total of 17 Angel Senior Warrant Officers, 17 Angel Warrant Officers, 8 Angel Staff Sergeants, 18 Angel Sergeants and 16 Angel Corporals.

To recognize all the hardwork put in by the Angels, the ArchAngels gave all Angels 2 bonus points each, which sees the advancement of several Angels to the next Rank, and some up 2 Ranks, up to the Rank of Angel Warrant Officer.

A post-parade gathering was also held on the 12th of August 2006 at East Coast Park, where all Cadets and Instructors went wild and did footdrill on the beach and fired off the Feiu-De-Joie with imaginary rifles.

In 3 days' time, the RCYNDP ZeroSiX journey will come to an end, with a simple "Thank you, and Goodbye". The National Day Parade details are as follows:
