Gas Chamber

Calvary SG

what to expect in the chamber?

what drills need to be done?

Do we need to wear mark 4 before we go inside?

ditzy SG

Assume nothing, expect anything. Laughing

dumbdumb! SG

from an SCDF personel,

expect a whole lot of pain on your skin. take a deep breath before releasing your mask and canister. if u feel the choking effect while wearing the canister, give 2 hard blows from your mouth to expell the gas inside. maybe your canister is expired.

when the tear gas is breathed in, u feel your saliva is clogging up and u just feel like throwing up.

your eyes hurt like hell. your skin burns like needles poking your skin

how serious the effect is depends on the amount of tear gas tablet they burn. the worst i've endured is 10 tablets at one shot.

Crappyz SG

depends on your pc, unit... and NSF or NSman??

NSman and not specialised unit more likely can suit up wirh mask first...

drills... should be IA, ID, shixting drill(no kidding), canister change, drinking...haha

wa you scarying him huh... hahaha... forgot to bring glove before... had to endure 1 hour inside doing planning n stuff with no gloves... hahaha
for me, they just dump all the tablets left over... coz last detail... then suddenly the whole place smoke out...

Rockhound SG

You won't die in the chamber, but you'll die from boredom waiting outside for your turn to enter the chamber. Laughing

CKtalon SG

freedom4ever SG

nismoS132 SG

it's not as bad as they describe it to be.

just remember NOT to rush towards the tap once you're out of the room, or it WILL be as bad as described.

and bring lots of money. a mobile canteen van drives around the area. the chicken rice was rather nice. wanton mee looked good too.

Crappyz SG

wow... didnt know there was mobile canteen... i think we went different chambers...

ditzy SG

It's that uncle who drives his van around. Laughing If you having range, he;ll be there, if you having the gas chamber thingie, he can be there too. He knows there will be exercises around because the very people who patronise him are the ones who tell him so. Come to think of it, I miss the mee kiao tah.

In Gas Chamber, the gas emmited usually is CS gas.
It is something like pepper spray, but more powerful. as we know that pepper spray only have effect on the point of contact. as for CS, as long as any part of the body kana, it will spray upwards. as for feeling wise. your skin feel likes being poke by needles, esp more painful when your pores are open. your eyes wont be able to open, and u be crying like someone important to u had pass away, your muclus will flow like one long lasting river. Some ppl have the choking effect on the throat, and this do not apply to all ppl. some ppl dont feel that.

insouciant SG

I think the uncle is on Mindef's training programme mailing list. Either that or he has hacked into the system. He always seems to know where to go.

ditzy SG

Or basically every unit's s3 dept. Laughing

gnoik SG

CKtalon SG

Crappyz SG

tchiew SG

My time, jumping jacks then take off mask and say Name, rank NRIC follow by an army song Shocked . After exiting the chamber, we took 5 mins break before clearing SOC (SOC ground was a close to gas Chamber) with suit and mask on ... face was burning from sweat. Guess which camp was it! Smile
