Any such stories about people like armskote spec etc that lost a
gun and go DB?
Sorry, whenever a soldier says "gun", I immediately think of
155mm howitzer ~lol~ They never make you chant "This is my rifle /
This is my gun / This is for shooting / This is for fun" for naming
the wrong weapon in BMT, meh?
Very difficult to lose a rifle inside armskote, with the multiple
checks & security access in place. Even the blank attachments
& case deflecters are accounted for daily. Now, losing them out
in the field is another thing.
Sorry but, whats db exactly?
DB = Detention barracks. Very regimentated, except for perhaps
the jailed Jehovah Witnesses. Life for the others is like regular
prison plus BMT plus old-school RT plus NPCC-style foot drills. I
think the Straits Times did a photo essay a few years ago; it was
hosted online somewhere but cannot find anymore.
who started this 7 years thing ah?
Must be the Enciks ~lol~ You know, lah, the end of every range
shooting where you swear not to have any round or firing pin in
your possession, then forewarned about DB before kena *ahem*
groped.
