Big Bot SG 1: Lets say I got some illness or rather mental problem, so they give me PES C, then after that I ok liao, den never go tell the doctor and remain a PES C, is it a crime? 2: Lets say I achieve many fitness award before, but during checkup, I purposely don't bring all those documents. Is that a crime?
octega SG If minor injury which can recover one, most of time they will only give temp PES status. For example, in my time, they gave temp 6mth PES C/E with medical reviews done on mth to mth or bi monthly basis (i.e u go back for check up) If deem recovered, they upgrade u to ur former PES. If permeant injury or medical condition usually perm PES one. (i.e. when they say u are pai ka pai chiu mean u are pai ka pai chiu) Moral of The Story:- Who is the biggest and best kengster in SAF? It is SAF itself. SAF is the king of all kengsters, anything u can think of, they already know liao, how u think u can win?
acwire_2125 SG Hey guys, did you know, Service men are to salute the National Cadet Corps Officers when meeting such officers in the course of offcila duty? Bet you guys never salute!
KoolKool SG NCC is play play only. No need to be serious with them. The Cadet LT you see today may only be a CPL when he enlist. What is there to salute ?
acwire_2125 SG Well, wheateer you like it or not, it is suppose to be like that, according to a maual that the SAF came out with. Well, only salute those OFFICERS, not CLT! haha
gaoxingdcf SG sorry hor,i see MAJ or COL,i dun salute wan hor… I juz say good morning sir… How to salute wheb ur hands are full???
stellazio SG ahh, u mean those teachers in charge of their sch? as in nsmen but posted to ncc division? cuz students can only reach till clt..
KoolKool SG Ok, there are some SAF officers posted to NCC HQ. But I don't think they are wearing NCC epaulettes. Theirs should still use the Singapura one. So, there is still a difference. One question : Can a CPL (NS) school teacher be a LTA or CPT in the NCC ?
KoolKool SG these senior chaps are probably some ex-SAF officers anyways, maybe 2 ranks down when in SAF but promoted while in NCC. Then cannot wear Singapura rank.
octega SG Actually for me I won't salute to NCC. The reason: Why shld I pay respect to a person belonging to a organization that doesn't even respect the uniform. As I said in another thread, they shld either totally change the NCC uniform until it is totally different from the SAF creed or totally barred the ginnas from wearing outside the school premises. I am totally sick of these ginnas playing a fool outside while wearing the uniform.
acwire_2125 SG Well, yes, my secondary school CO is a CPL in Army. BTW, if you are a offcier in NS say, CPT, they will let you start from the rank equivilant in NCC.
