You can be posted anywhere in the SAF, even Navy/Air force after
you pass out from SMM...
Generally, SMM was the best time of my army life, I remember the 2
hr canteen breaks, 3 nights out a week and the '10 pushup' Standby
beds at the old SMM at ulu pandan. (i call it the '10 pushup
standby' cos' that's the max you'll get...).
you'll also learn many important skills at SMM, much of which
you'll promptly forget when you get to the unit, cos your MO and
Encik will take perverse pleasure in making sure that do things
their way, not the "'F**KED UP way' that SMM teaches"( in the words
of my Encik). Of course there's the dreaded IV, which is fun in a
sadistic kinda way.
In my opinion, the saddest part about SMM and CMC was the passing
out, cos that's when you realize that the holiday's over and you
might actually have to do some real soldiering...
