In his closing remarks, the SLSC Colonel Commandant reminded the significance of build-up of the career on a sound footing. “Consider commitment, knowledge, loyalty and discipline are as strong pillars and build up your career on that strong structure,” he appealed. The visiting Colonel Commandant during his address further highlighted that the SLSC School is held responsible not only for providing professional knowledge to its trainees but also for infusing positive attitudes, related to duties of the Corps and the Army as a whole. Subsequent to his address and distribution of certificates to MCC Officers, he met all Officers and a section of Other Ranks at tea where he inquired about their views and requirements they need further for their training programmes.

A few minutes later, he visited the Communication Lab where a team of Indian Army Instructors are holding a training programme for Young Officers of the Sri Lanka Signal Corps.
