I don't think it's possible for a NCO to be promoted to a
officer during reservist.
I do vaguely recall such a commissioning, but it was under
extraordinary circumstances (the Hotel New World Collapse).
Supposed to be an "instant" field promotion too, when the rescue
work was still going on. The news made the papers. I was doing BMT
in Tekong then, & fleetingly read about it in the COY admin
office after submitting my IC report late at night.
Can't pinpoint whether the guy was a reservist, though. Correctly
or not, I've associated him all these years as a Combat Engineer,
for some reason.
