  Just to clarify :
  
  Aiguillettes are worn on the right shoulder by :
  
  1. ADCs to the President.
  2. Hon. ADCs to the President.
  3. CDF
  
  They are appointed by the President.
  
  The rest of the people wearing aiguillettes are worn on the left shoulder.

  no, he was already CDF then. but his rank is still MG. only after around 1 year of his CDF appointment was he promoted to LG. guess he was having problems pasing his IPPT.

  actually if compare by size, i think current CAF Ng will be the fastest runner.
  he is the slimmest officer i've ever seen!

  even the past CNV Ronnie Tay was a fast runner.
  
  Not to sure abt RAdm Chew Meng Long though.
  
  CDF is very fit for a man of his age. That was when he came to my camp to see our PT regime.
