Though a week late after Valentine’s Day, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) posted a sweet little love story that blossomed 15 years ago between two of its veteran officers.
In an age way before Tinder opening lines and flirty text messages, SWO Durai Raj was nonetheless full of game when he courted his now-wife CPT Lau Ee Ling. According to the SCDF post, he sweetly held the hand of the lady — who he thought was “very cute at first sight” — when they were caught in the rain.
“Some may say these are old school tricks but we cannot deny that SWO Raj is also the sweetest,” wrote SCDF, and we couldn’t agree more. Fifteen years on since they got together, they’re still in the Force — putting down fires everywhere, but keeping their romance alight. Aww.
Check out more love stories of SCDF officers in a special Valentine’s Day edition of their monthly mag, Rescue 995.
