ORIGAMIST SG My son went for check up and is rated Pes "D" .... what does this mean ? Anyone can help?
dkcx SG PES D is just a temporary PES to show that your son has gone thorugh medical checkup but has some medical problem that the MO is unable to give a confirm PES immediately. Normally PES D last for 3 months or so and there should be instructions for him to go down again at a later date or to go somewhere for some checkup etc.
ORIGAMIST SG oh ?.... I thought he don’t have to go BMT or something like that … so at the next medical review, he will know his status ? By the way, there is Pes E and F, what are they ???
dkcx SG PES E are for people with major health problems and will be normally assign as clerks or storeman depending on their problems. PES E people will go tekong for a 5 day induction programme before posting to unit to serve their 2 years. After that PES E people will ROD and will not be called up for reservist. PES F are for people who totally cannot serve at all like the disabled, people with mental problems etc
Ponders SG PES E : broken femur, congenital defects like 1 ear, more fingers than supposed to be, less fingers than supposed to be. very serious eye problems, skin problems, etc PES F: HIV positive, 1 leg, 1 arm, etc.
tarutaru SG Diabetes can range between c2-F depending how serious is your case. But Cancer most likely F. Btw don't think it's good to get F for such illness, if like that most likely the MO is telling you go home wait till you die.
dkcx SG Got any specialist letter etc to backup the problem? I don't really think will have great effect on PES, just drink more water and in tekong you are made to drink ALOT of it.
Father Lim SG pes d is sort of status unknown... i knew of one case where the serviceman was pes D until about 3-4 months before he ord when they upgraded him to pes c and sent him to bmt... he ord immediately after he completed his ns liability...
noahnoah SG it might be due to the defect of what brain problem or kidney problem If go without water for half an hour or a hour will be a danger sign of dehydration no need to depend on the weather is hot or waht
Rockhound SG PES D nothing uh...just the army wants to double check on your son's medical status with an outside opinion i was PES D for a month because of Suspected Kerataconus....due to record-breaking astigmatism.. after being blinded at TTSH for a day....turned out nothing wrong... but okla...free eye check...hehehe......was told that my opticians tested my eye wrongly
dkcx SG Get a specialist letter and highlight this when you go for your medical checkup. If its as bad as what you say, might be able to get a PES E but thats just my opinion.
vulpes macrotis mutica SG i think certain civil charges would warrant a discharge from the army, correct me if i’m wrong.
will4 SG Servicemen diagnozed mental problem will likely get PES C or E depending on the severity of the problem. For those PES C servicemen with mental problem they need to go thru range in which this is dangerous. They should be excused range during their modified BMT no matter how light is their condition.
