nightzip SG All these, cant be a rifle lah...nor can be be a map. I can imagine calling SIB or brigade commander down just for this.... And even more for a division commander! must be something big, expensive, offensive and confidential...but then couldnt be SISPEC also, cause they will never bring more than a rifle, some optics and maps....those will not warrant a BG, COLs etc. I think something worse has happen just before CNY.... most prob. a soldier has slipped from some highland area in the jungles and was killed. I mean the whole M16 lost incident could be a cover-up for something bigger.
Ponders SG Some disgruntled ration storeman who tripped over the rifle butt sticking out of the mud. Then he recover, he shouted, "CCB, already kena sai kang still trip in the mud... but that looks like a rifle butt...."
LazerLordz SG Anything's possible.But it still boils down to the fact that we need the good ol' bleddy infantry. But it's an unfortunate incident, whatever it actually is.
Ponders SG YOu'd be surprised. The same division commander had to go P. Tekong on a saturday afternoon just because there was a irregularity in an Armskote book that makes a weapon appear to be missing. After investigation, turn out the weapon was in the armskote, just that the book wasn't updated.
deathscythe99 SG Have done NAVEX is full gear in Spore before lor, so I dun see why it cant be done Just that the immense amount of resources poured in....seemed suspicious
LazerLordz SG NAVEX in Singapore is common, just that the amt of troops deployed made it suspicious, as what you've said. So Div. Commanders these days have to go around camps inspecting items eh?Well, they should be fully utilised as they can get things done better by being there in person.
nightzip SG So now all the div. commanders all very bo-eng all these chicken rice pea size problems also ask them go... whatever happened to the brigade commanders? bo zho gang?
SMAPLionHeart SG if im the poor bastard i'll probably get a plane ticket and leave sg for china. blend in with the 1.3 billion chinese and get a new name .
SMAPLionHeart SG Let me offer him a cup of wine. 1. He was being forced to do something he doesn't want to do. 2. He will be sent to DB while training to protect the country. This is the MIW way of rewarding Singaporeans! Majulah Singapura!
SMAPLionHeart SG Probably they will ask him these questions... 1. Why did you lose this rifle? 2. What were you doing when you lose this rifle? 3. What time did you lose it? But he should ask THEM this question... 1. Who forced me to carry the rifle one?
SMAPLionHeart SG Good good! send him to life imprisonment in DB! thats a good way to treat 18 year old teenagers who can't even renounce citizenship and paid less then 1/1200 of a peanut!
Gordonator SG 400 soldiers activated for a M16, either SAF really loves to make a big fuss out of small matters or it's covering up for something bigger.
casshern SG do you think everyone is like u so unwilling to serve the country and protecting the lives of his loved ones?
Shotgun SG one m-16 only less than a thousand dollars nowadays. Compared to the losses i’ve seen in my nsf days, its really peanuts. Try adding 3 more zeros behind and u will realise how SAF can really mess things up.
