tasks. During Eagle Challenge 15, I led a team to compete against the best from the other air bases in a segment of the Infrastructure & System Recovery challenge. The standards were very high and although we did not win, I was proud of the fighting spirit, team work and professionalism displayed by my team. Even though my journey in the RSAF is only in its infancy, I have found it to be extremely meaningful and fulfilling, both professionally and personally. I look forward to the expanded leadership roles that await me in my career. I am truly blessed to be able to work alongside all the dedicated professionals of the ACE community. Air Power starts with us! With Us, You Launch!

Their responsibilities include rapid runway repairs, rapid unexploded ordnance disposal, installation of landing aids, and restoration of essential facilities such as power, fuel, and underground communication lines. The ACE SQNs also support air base operations in building and infrastructure maintenance and airfield operations such as refuelling, airfield sweeping and aviation support operations.
