This is the card for Marco Cheung. He’s leaving Cadets tomorrow.
In the top right corner is a little picture of him & Grant holding hands and prancing away LOL. On the bottom right is a picture of pho + captions “I’m PHO real” and “You are un-PHO-gettable!”
“CHIEF PETTY OFFICER FIRST CLASS CHEUNG!
I don’t think you realize how much you mean to not only me, but everyone you’ve ever interacted with. It’s a shame that you couldn’t have stayed for longer, and much more of a shame that so many Cadets won’t hear you say the words of wisdom you’ve embedded in our heads. However, your advice be passed on, and your legacy has been built. It’s evident that you’re going to be an ample architect, particularly because of the endowment you’ve assembled here- and yet, we still wish you the best of luck. Please don’t forget us, the little people who have admired you constantly from when you first told us to get our hands out of our pockets, or to stand up straighter in division. If you have the time to reminisce, look at the title you have earned after so long, and remember all the memories and friends you’ve made. Think back to the derpy Basics and remember how you never really gave up. Remember the Gunnery course that cannot die, and how strong it has made you in almost every way possible. Bicknell will always be here for you- it’s like you’re married to us, you know. It’s kind of like how Bicknell’s your wife, and all of the cadets you’ve said anything to are your children. What am I even saying..? Anyway, you really did inspire every single Cadet you have met. You affected everyone, and helped mold us into better people- if not, you forced us into it. I don’t think I’m going to forget the talks & speeches you gave during NCO meetings- you’re a great orator. I wish I could have thanked you more and told you how you were somebody I looked up to for inspiration and motivation during camp 2011; particularly at the Chaining Ceremony. You are my role model, for all the obstacles you’ve hurdled through and all the problems you’ve thrown over your brick wall of answers, and for the things you’ve said so carefully, the things you’ve done so specifically, and the sheer brilliance, courage, leadership, and boldness you subconsciously show. I don’t think anybody could ever possibly forgot the Soldier Fuel song, either. I got you some just in case you would miss it! Enjoy :) Your influence on everybody at 195 Bicknell has been so great- it’s hard for other people to match you. The systems you have planned and put to action in the lasting months you stayed will remain as an arc that each NCO will eventually walk under. You’re a true leader, and you’ve gained all the respect anybody could ask for.
You will be missed so much.
- Jackie Tong.
p.s. we asked Jason to ask you what your fave animal was. He said you didn’t have one, so here’s some yummy PHO!”
