SINGAPORE - Soon after the derrick of an oil drillship caused two cable cars to be plunged into the waters off Sentosa, divers from the Naval Diving Unit (NDU) - a special forces formation of the Republic of Singapore Navy - arrived to conduct underwater search.

Among them was Third Sergeant (Ret) Faustin Hogan, now 61, who recounted the 1983 incident to the media at the occasion of NDU's 50th anniversary.
