SECOND POST; CORPORALS and SQUAD LEADERS
Corporal Bernice Tan said;-
First, I would like to thank every single one who has contributed to this camp including the campers, without of them; this recruitment camp would not be successful. THANK YOU. I myself have also learned a lot from this camp. Like the idiom ‘Two heads is better than one’, which means when two people work together more things get accomplished. In Boys’ Brigade, there is no such thing as an ‘I’ but a ‘We’. No one should be handling projects by themselves, but one also needs another person in order to make the project successful. Whereas this camp, helped me to understand the real meaning of teamwork. Not just that, I have also learn not to look down at people who are younger than we are. In this camp, most of the campers are aged 10 to 15 who are younger than I am. It is amazing how much a 10 year old can contribute to his/her team in the camp. This can be found in bible; do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 1Timothy 4:12

感谢主～ 这次的营会能成功的举行。用和平彼此联络，竭力保守圣灵所赐合而为一的心。（以弗所书4:3）谢谢一班愿意委身的小队长们和一班尊敬的军官们。同样的也谢谢数位弟兄姐妹愿意抽空他们的时间来到营会，来帮助我们。这里也要谢谢我们教会的弟兄姐妹在禁食祷告里面，一直为我们和我们的营会来祷告。这次的营会，我是以不同的心情来参加这次的营会，因为我不再是参与者，而是营会的委员。谢谢我们的伟怀，为我们策划了这个营会。这次的营会，让我在当中学习很多不同的功课。 透过这次的营会，让我学习到了去更爱这班的小朋友和青少年们。同样的也让我学习到如何设计及安排一本营会手册。手册在营会里，是一本非常重要的书，因为里面含有各组的名单，敬拜赞美诗歌，每一天的灵修材料和营会的地图。在这我要谢谢健贤在设计及安排手册里，他也帮了我许多忙。当我忙得不知所错，他就是我最好的帮助。谢谢委员们和军官们彼此搭配，还能让这次的营会，如此的精彩。

这次的营会让我学习到了很多，我面对了我人生中很多的‘第一次’。第一次自己煮饭，第一次炒菜，第一次洗世界上最难洗的锅，等等. 营会第一天时，要自己准备午餐，可是我根本不会，就想这次一定糟糕了，但是幸亏我的其中一位组员会煮，所以就给她煮咯，可是3个字—不成功。只好对不起组员让他们吃有烧焦味的饭，我就负责看有什么菜就倒下去炒了，管他好不好吃。可是他们还是吃得津津有味，可能是肚子太饿吧。洗锅的时候洗到…-.- 。所以啊，洗烧焦的锅不容易啊。我的组有一位印度人啊，沟通方面就有点问题了。可是一切都很好。可怜很多人被很多很多的蚊子叮，可以说那里的蚊子就像一年没吃东西了。
在第二天station games时，大多数的station都是要合作精神的，全员们都很全力以赴地玩，我们也玩得很开心。输或赢不要紧，最总要的是过程。然后就到了我最不喜欢的—爬山! 上山之前我一再地提醒他们怎样都不可以把鸡蛋给人。走着的时候有点怕因为第一次带人上去，路途中一直休息，不是组员们累，而是我累。可怜他们要一直等我，人老了就是这样的。所有的组回来后，鸡蛋都被骗了，只有我们没有被骗，因为我去过meeting,所以我知道了细节。哈哈聪明吧。中午就是让人很怕的map oriental。因为营长他形容到很怕那样。其实还不错啦，只是组员们都累了走路就慢慢吞吞的。也在当中学了很多东西如怎样用指南针，谁的贝登堡啊。一路跟着指示去找全副军装。晚上的时候我们有全副军装，就用我们下午所找到的东西拿来穿在一个人身上。组员们就用报纸这里黏那里也黏，很好笑。过后突然营长很serious,叫我们安静然后就蒙上每个人的眼睛，我怕到…根本看不到任何的东西，只有一条绳子，就这样慢慢地走走到终点。路途中会有很多挫折，所以这游戏让我们学会了如果没有神，我们什么都不能做。啊，就这样第二天结束了。半夜不想睡就坐在HQ守夜，其他组的组长也很热心地陪我一起守。守到了两点多我不能tahan了，就去睡了，接下来发生什么事我就不清楚了。
最后一天了，颁奖典礼，当然全部人都很开心。过后就是要离别了。可以讲很多人哭到很可怜，在一起相处毕竟都有3天了，自然会有感情。就这样，营会结束了。很开心，很感谢神一切都进行得很顺利，也让我们彼此都能够相处到很好。也感谢所有为营会付出的人尤其是周队长和玮怀营长。就期待下一次的营会吧！

First of all, shalom to everyone, may God be with you. X-Army Camp last for 3 days and 2 nights. It was a fun, interesting and exciting camp. I enjoyed this camp very much and learnt many things that are useful in life. For example, I learnt how to become a good leader that can lead a good team. Learning leadership is very important to me as I maybe a future leader in this country. Further more, I learnt about sharing with each other which I did not done that before participating the camp. Well, “no pain, no gain”, being a leader is very difficult and disgusting, you need to serve your team members well. You need to show good examples that can glorified God. With those qualities, they will gradually believe that God is real and He is the savior of all. Besides, I learnt how to take care of myself when my parents are gone ( back to heaven). This was really, extremely important as we will one day grow up and face difficulties. We will need to solve it ourselves without the help of our parents. Well, I guess it is the time we said goodbye, I am stopping here right now. I am looking forward to the camp next year. Make It More Interesting and Exciting! And finally GOD BLESS YOU!

Boys' Brigade History
The first Boys' Brigade company was set up by Sir William Alexander Smith on 4 October, 1883, at Free Church Mission Hall, North Woodside Road, Glasgow, Scotland, to develop "Christian manliness" by the use of a semi-military discipline and order, gymnastics, summer camps, and religious services and classes.
In the years following the establishment of the 1st Glasgow company, others were rapidly formed throughout Scotland and the rest of the United Kingdom leading to a movement comprising thousands of boys.
The Boys Brigade movement in Wales was founded by George Phillip Reynolds in 1887 at Havelock Sreet Presbyterian Church, Newport, Monmouthshire.
By the early 20th century there were about 2,200 companies connected with different churches throughout the United Kingdom, the British Empire, and the United States, with 10,000 officers and 160,000 boys.
Each company is normally affiliated to a battalion encompassing several nearby companies, which in turn are organized at a district and then national level, although in Scotland each company is attached to a local district, which is attached to a battalion.
Companies are named in the form "2nd Springfield", indicating the second company to have been established in or around Springfield; it should be noted that where companies have closed, numbers are not normally reallocated, so it is quite normal to find a "2nd" but no "1st" company.
Initally, a simple rosette was worn as an identifying uniform, shortly being replaced by the simple use of a belt, haversack, and pillbox cap (a popular military cap of the day) worn over the boys' everyday clothing.
The pillbox cap was used into the 1960s, long after it had fallen out of use in the British Army, when it was replaced with a field cap.
The movement also pioneered camping for leisure in Britain, previously rarely used outside the military. Early admirers of the Brigade included Robert Baden-Powell who as Vice President of the Boys' Brigade used it alongside initiatives in schools, particularly Eton, to promote the idea of scouting and outdoor pursuits based on those of the military for boys.
At the time, he did not originally intend that any individual organization would later arise from this aim in the form of the various Boy Scouts movements.
Early examples of Scouting were seen in Boys' Brigade Scouting awards and even specialised Boys' Brigade Scout sections who wore a blue uniform with shorts and the distinctive Smokey Bear hat traditionally identified with Scouts, and still worn today by drill sergeants in the United States Army.
However, nowadays there is a certain friendly rivalry between the two groups.
The Boys' Life Brigade was one of many similar movements formed by the Boys' Brigade's influence, sometimes along denominational or religious lines, including the Church Lads' Brigade, the Jewish Lads' Brigade, or the Catholic Boys' Brigade.
The merger also prompted the abandonment of dummy drill rifles that had been used in The Boys' Brigade, due to the Life Brigade's objection to use of weapons or their representations. For some time afterwards, the section covering members aged 8–12 years was known as Life Boys, before being restyled as the Junior section.
A popular hymn in the BB containing its motto and obvious reference to its emblem is "Will Your Anchor Hold" by Priscilla Owens, usually sung at displays and church services. Note, however, that this is not the official Boys' Brigade song. The official song for the Boy's Brigade is 'Underneath the banner'.
