RMC 1957 'Budak Boys' leave time capsule after celebrations


PORT DICKSON: Five decades ago, they paraded on the same Federation Military College (FMC) airstrip, took baths in the communal bathroom, competed against one another on the same padang and practiced their leopard crawl on the beach here. 

The teenagers that they were once, now have become grandfathers but the bonds of friendship forged at FMC (now known as Royal Military College) has endured and grown stronger among "Budak Boys" or Old Putera (OP).
