No one during their years in service like RSMs. They are the discipline master of the unit and always put the word "I charge you" whenever they speak to the specialists and men. However, they are doing their job lah. Some of them whom I had came across are very delicated warrant officers. Some whom are already retired or about to retire.

I wish to highlight one particular RSM, SWO Chandran Nair, the former Armour formation RSM. He is such a discipline military man. He wears a heavily starched No. 4 every day to work.

I think the most sad case is the RSM from SAFTI SSU...red beret and got ranger badge,sinper badge...can do 2.4 under 9.45 and hes in his 50s...I see him call my fren (2LT) sir really feel sorry for him sia....even my fren said tt he felt very uncomfortable when he does tt....somemore everyday get 2 see him.... Laughing

Sir or no sir is just a language that they use... respect is carried in actions and in the heart, not by mere words Very Happy

SAF RSM SWO Gunga in my opinion is a very nice RSM. saw him countless times, even spoke with him once. whenever he comes, he'll always wave and smile at us. i never seen him frown or show us a stern face before like what most RSM will. Cool

sgboy2004 SG

some of them are born tat face one lah, not that they are not smiling Laughing

Rank is what you wear,Respect is what you learnt,sometimes even those Officers look up to the RSM’s who happen to be of lower ranking.

the DETC RSM, 1WO Wong is also another great man i admire, a fatherly figure. during this year engineers' day parade, he was the contingent 1 RSM, the contingent i was marching in. one morning during rehearsal, seeing the SAF band has not yet arrived, he offered to provide the 'broom' 'broom' drumroll for us to rehearse. even now i can still rememnber his 'broom' 'broom' 'broom' sound. unforgetable. Mr. Green

Naga88 SG

Agree with you, he was our CSM in 1974. never change....old soilder never die..they just fade away...

wow, you so lao jiao, you must also know legends like SWO Ong Hui Peng (AI), one of the 3 WOs who were first to be promoted to SWO during the mid 80s. What about SWO Mike Tay, SWO Tay Song Kwee and SWO Fum Nien Yan

Naga88 SG

Those were the time. unit always have 1 to 2 recruit company. Recruits are trained by unit, you may be sent to school for courses, but will be back to your same unit. Unless something happen, you ROD (Now ORD) with the same unit.

Event they are like Tiger Evil or Very Mad in the parade square, we still respect each other alot.

Naga88 SG

We know most of the RSM in the same formation(only a handful of them), though after so long have forgotten their name, or some of the faces, but once we sit down and start to talk, all the good old memories will come back….
