Two of our classmates of Form Five, year 1956 are cited for bravery

Lt.Colonel Razali bin Yusof – was shopping in a hardware shop and there was an attempted robbery. He tried to confront the robbers but was shot. The robbers fled leaving Razali wounded. He survived and recovered from the gun-shot wounds. He proves that a soldier is always combat-ready and reacts appropriately in any crisis situation. Well done Razali, you made our class proud by exemplifying a well-trained and tough soldier par excellence!

Mohd Nor bin Daimon – a fire officer stationed at Pudu Fire Station received a distress call of a fire out break. As his team of fire crew was rushing to the scene an unexpected tragic incident occurred. The fire vehicle somersaulted leaving the crew badly injured. Mohd Nor bin Daimon suffered extensive injury and recovered only after a lengthy medical treatment. He continued to serve in the fire services till his retirement and rose to the rank Director of Fire Services, Wilayah Persekutuan K.L. A committed fireman, Mohd Nor goes on record for devotion to duty to the extent of disregarding personal safety; something you left behind for all of us to remember you by. He passed away sometime after retirement. May he rest in peace.
