Welcome to Changi Defense Squadron, alot like FDS, training will
be at Changi Navel Training Base, RSS Panglima.
I OOC'd from SSC8, you'll be from SSC9, the training is extremely
physically extensive, very regimental, the bunks are unlike
anything in BMT, they are in near perfect shape. Ultimately your
job scope will basically be a "super" RP, 12 week course, get ready
for lots of IPPT / SOC / Swim training. Min Silver to pass the
course. You will learn M203 / SAW / GPMG, and some other theory
stuff. After you finish the course, you will go for a 2 week on the
job training, and then you continue with duty, at either Changi
Navel Base or Tuas Navel Base. If you are from BMT you will be man
under CPLs who will also train with you, by the time you go to the
posting, they would've just passed out from SISPEC BSLC.
Learn this name : SWO Balvinder Singh. You'll know why soon
Course is the most fun you'll have there, but you'll get alot of
fun exposure, foreign warships coming in etc, so its not so bad.
Just get ready for a big culture shock coming from the Army.
Enjoy!
