TRUE to the testament of their comradeship, a group of Malaysian armed forces veterans have banded together to help families of other veterans in need during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Using their WhatsApp chat group, 51 retired officers -– all of whom had been cadets from the batch SSC28 (Army and Air Force) along with those from Navy 16 –- initiated the call and pooled their resources for the effort.
