Question on Reservist Status

Xprobe SG

Have a question. I am a Class 1 signaller but have not been back for reservist for the past 10 years. Am I obsolete liao so that they will make me an infantry man? Any idea on this?

Mr. Green

NSPC to be precise... dial 67608828(SAF Phone Directory) to check what is their number.

sgboy2004 SG

Since ORD, i hav never been called up too

erijazz SG

Certain NS Bn needs to wait for the estab to build up slowly compare to those who ORD together with the whole mono intakes. So, before the unit form up... the rest are on holding list with NSPC.
err... not convenient to tell which type of unit here... Mr. Green

Hey , I class 1 signaller, not class 1 fool okay, you think I so gilat go and call them now when I am already in my mid-30s and my last real run is about 1.5 years ago. All the exercise I do now is in bed.

Anyway, I think I will ganna infantry man, better to keep my head down and continue with my life.

Mid 30s, I dun think they will recall you at all, count yourself lucky.

I think you are too old to be converted to infantry even in PDF, even you are converted, you only have a few years to serve ,so what the point, for SAF I mean.

CHARGE!!!

Dig trench, walk instead of sit in rover, do fire drills, sleep in basha, help load and unload stores

Compared to, only draw radio equip, mount on rover and follow officer where he goes, sleep in rover, wear jockey cap, plus eat at hawker center while on the way back to camp to get extra batteries?

You kidding?

wuming78 SG

Laughing o cos we all haf our personal preferences mah.

anyway signaller oso got to walk ok? and sometimes they carry even more weight than the infantrymen, from all the signal set + extra batt (300%) + eqpt.

No, enlisted NS men serve up to 40y.o., then they will ROD.

To be converted to infantry, you need to go for conversion course , for example if you are converted to Rifleman say SAW, you will go for a few days course with live firing.

After all conversion course is completed for all new infantry men, they will form a new PDF unit, the new unit will have to go thru at least 3 ICT to be operational.

Good. So it is not so smart for them to invest in me anymore. Thank god...hmmm...how come I am so happy when my country dont take notive of me...maybe I stay here for too long

Xprobe SG

Depends my friend, depends...hehehehehe...bridgade level and above is cruise-on-wheels all the way man, battalion must see...if you follow the 2 and 3, then tough luck, so must look for kangtow to follow the 1 and 4 plus the MO and all other support Awfiser

Xprobe SG

Oh one more thing, unless your 2 or 3 are super on-the-ball (which often they are not), you can lose the backpak and keep it where they keep it (which is in the rover and the driver being ordered to jaga it). So, you just carry the radio set.

Xprobe SG
