KoolKool SG Saw this morning’s papers. The 4 equipment are standard issues to all BMT recruits. Wow ! The item I like best is the Swiss Knife. Its the closest association with quality if one does not have it.
|-|05| SG june 2006 batch i was on toliet cleaning duty and i also had to area clean my bunk.....not much change there.
|-|05| SG the swiss knife.....very long have liao mah....2 or 3 years i think.hah i just my to cut fruits and C-rations out field hahaha other then that it's pretty useless Edith wait hah got new swiss knife....7 tools instead of the old 2
bent SG i want the new fieldpack asap man! so convenient as its so big! wonder when they will give it to those currently serving.. i ord nov...
Tuki SG u expect banglah to go clean your toilet and bunk oso ah....now bmt like bloody holiday camp liao, they should bring back log pt!!!!
tfcheng SG i read from the newpaper that operational ready men will be issued with the fieldpack later this year, so i think it is better to wait and see rather than buying one for urself.
Gordonator SG i want to see pics of the knife. but guess we just have to wait for this batch of recruits to POP first before we get to see it.
Fatum SG the old swiss knife was a joke, I only put that in my tackle box to cut bait .... the old buck knife was a lot tougher ...
KoolKool SG Yeah, I agree. Even a boy scout wouldn’t use the old Swissknife. The new one definitely more robust looking, fit for a soldier.
Xcert SG Thanks for the knife pics mr_sotong.... well...better than the metallic one that used to be issued... seem like a scaled-down version of the swiss knife... but if its cheap...might be a good idea to invest in one if one doesnt need too many functions.
tfcheng SG definitely better than the previous one. think other than being a standard item, i dont remember utilising it. in fact i bought one abt 10 functions one for $2 at jurong pasar malam. lol.
