dragonstar SG I received my letter this year too thanking me for my service :-) Hooray!!! You had 5 years before your first ICT - I ROD'ed in the middle of the year and had ICT in the same year !
tkw88 SG But not yet receive my demob letter leh? What is the time gap between your 40th birthday and the letter?
specfore SG Hi, the time gap from my experience this year... I reached 40 a few months ago... is about one week. Your last reserve unit will send you a computerised letter (very impersonal) and tell you in one short sentence that yr liability is now over and thank you very much !
tkw88 SG ok, thanks, my case a bit more complicated, as I was on exit permit, and my last reserve unit was a brigade hq -- so may be they have forgotten about me...
specfore SG Hi TKW88 I am in the same boat as you. Was on exit permit (still am overseas working at the moment) but I received the computerised letter anyway. I heard from other friends that those who are earmarked for re-cycle as SCDF or something will get a later letter that is different. I was not recycled as my 6 years of reservist was totally high key. Good luck!
