Hey,
I just started work at my new camp (fresh out of BMT) as a
clerk and I have been told that I am earmarked for an overseas
posting that could be as long as 9 months or 1 year. I
don't know where I'm going yet (my superiors have no idea
either) but I've been told that I'm supposed to learn the
ropes of being a clerk for a few months before going
overseas.
I really really don't want to go and my parents are also against
it. I am in PES C9 and need to see my doctor very regularly (like
at least once a month) to manage my condition and modify my
medication. I am told that I need to go for an FFI - would it be
significant in determining whether I go or not? What should I
do?
Is there anyone else who has been in this situation before? Or
anyone who knows someone whose been in this situation before. The
little I've read on other forums about this suggests that if you
really really don't want to go there may be options for
you? Any help would be very very appreciated. I am a bit
desperate right now.
Thanks.
just tell your chief clerk/S1 when they ask U...I havent heard
of any unit that just simply dumps people for overseas
posting...usually they will ask for consent....if not complaints
start to come in...they have to clear the mess...might as well get
someone willing to go...army everything dun have...manpower a
lot.
and worst case...just get your doctor to write a letter
lor...
