A memorable chapter concluded as the Company bid farewell to OC GCT, Maj Som Thulung (2 RGR), on 30 April 26, marking the end of his distinguished 31 years of regular military service. His departure not only signifies years of dedication but also the enduring impact he had on all ranks who served with him.
The Company gathered in the Messing Hut to honour the occasion with a farewell company messing.

On behalf of all ranks within GCT, we wish him continued success in his future endeavours.
