“As you can see all the needed facilities including generator and water were provided. It is to encourage our soldiers to be able to be hardworking so that they can attain the enviable rank of Arasent, COAS said.
In his welcome address, the Commandant of NASME, Major General J D Omali appreciated the Chief of Army Staff for bringing to reality his administrative pillar of Command.
He stated that the provision of better welfare to soldiers would engender the right attitude to operational effectiveness.
