BrUtUs SG haha... tats wat i tot... maybe he wan ppl volunteer db.... but db last time heard is jz abit better than zpc when back in old mowbray camp time...
Saint` SG lol .. n to think Db ppl hate zpc .. haha for obvious reasons in terms of welfare .. but to think of it .. my apc frens tell me apc is actually a heaven oso.. offs like water .. att c oso a grey area .. jus take mc from poly clinic then give a call to sgt ok liao ..
BrUtUs SG nono... apc is also hell... their 'qie' is more worst.... then alot of stupid bunk rules and punishment.... SOP is best....
zictool SG You formerly from SIB or SC?? Long time ago its called SC , now its called SB... heard that they gonna change all the names again... And ya.. SIB and SC(or SB as it is called now) wears civil...
zictool SG SOP or HQ is the best i think to be NSF MP(Man)...if you talking about simple, standard life.. For MP Specs... in Safpu.. basically no difference between Nsf man or spec.. just that Specs more responsibilities. Other wise, even new Specs have to OJT from lao jiaos most of the time. APC especially cant function without the men.. likewise for DB and ZPC. Not sure if things have changed since..
hemoid SG dun go APC.List of reasons 1:First you need to clear your OD(orientation drill).This means the specs and senoir corporals will come down and take you daily in drills.They will tekan and whack the shit out of you to get ur drill standard up.You will be judged by CSM at the end of 2 weeks.If still cmi..more whacking till he thinks u can make it.Meanwhile no privildges..live the life of a BMT recruit. 2:Then you need to earn your SPDS (precision drill) badge.You need to go for a month long course at SOP living the life of a BMT recruit 3:Then you need to earn your SPDS Advanced badge by doing more training.This is conducted by the senior corporals who are SPDS instructors in APC.Specs don't learn SPDS at all.The senior corporals will definately whack the shit out of you to achieve the standards needed.You will also need to pass your Last 100 warmup stage which is a series of physical exercises with your 5kg Mark4 rifle.Can anyone guess why its called Last 100?You will also live like a BMT recruit at this stage 4:OK passout liao!Suddenly you will get every priviledge at once.Stayout la..canteen OTOT la..can treat the specs like shit because u are SPDS trained and they're not la...So what next?well..every year there are 2 major events and 100s of minor ones.The 2 major ones are SAF day and NDP.If u heng no NDP..good for u cuz u burn every sat/sun and sometimes weekdays.The minor events are GOH at mindef and istana which is really shitty to goto. 5:Burn weekends no off la..OC fucker lol.Dun want to say anymore. 6:Guard duties on weekdays are done by APC..somemore lately cuz of manpower shortage somehow APC has to do weekend too..dunno what the Turban RSM is thinking but APC somehow does all the saikang. 7:If some big shot die like that time S Rajaratnam..you will be cursing the poor dead fella cuz u have to do a funeral GOH for him.Too long to elaborate but alot of prepartions involved.Be prepared to stay till 12 midnight doing rehearsals to make all the army RSMS and other big fucks happy. 8:New guys all get arrowed to do all the GOH/Performances 9erforming SPDS is not for everyone.Its not like NDP if ur in the GOH u can just be 1 in a thousand people even u do wrong command no one will know.SPDS if you forget drill or drop the rifle in front of a crowd..its damn obvious and damn embarrassing for yourself when you see people laughing at you in your face 10:Every first sunday of the month you need to go down to the Istana to do a parade called the Change of Guards parade.For those who never seen before you can go down at 1745pm outside Istana to see. 11:Got alot more but i lazy to type liao..haha
Kenashi SG u must be from the older batch. my batch is the last batch that ganna humtum like siao after my batch, everything become more lax n sin lang liao
zictool SG Yo which batch are u from..? the list of events u describe occurs during my time... though im not from APC... but my buddies from APC likes it leh...
hemoid SG nah my batch quite new i only ORD'd in nov.hm yeah up till my time this was still happening. APC is not bad if u like 8-5 job la but after a while gets abit sian le somemore starting so tough only like 1 month before ORD then can relak cuz of manpower shortage no xin jiao to take over u so u must do everything up till then haha.
Kenashi SG the system reverted?? damn my batch missed it sure or not, apc when u r lao jiao, hardly much thing to do when u got sin jiao. i remember when i got 9 mths b4 i ord, everyday just sleeping, playing games, go canteen n taking drill when there is GOH or COG. very relax life
hemoid SG yes but u see during my time up till 1 month before i ord'd....there were no xin jiao!haha.so no choice my batch have to do everything even though we were the most lao jiao..and yes we were complaining the whole time and comparing to our seniors who slept in bunk 9 months b4 ord..lol oh well it was the fault of our "superiors" who screwed up the manpower estimate.
