Storeman job is generally easy, more than often i see storeman slacking more than clerks. It just depends which store you get as some have more work while so...

zerofreeze SG

hey i got this as well. just a few questions, what's the frequency of routemarches, SOC, IPPT, field camps for an arti man?

hagejae SG

You are not going to be an arty gunner, instead your vocation is a GA(gunnery asst).
What u are going to specialise in is TOTALLY different from what a gunner do.
Your basic job scope is to learn the calculations and also to familiar yourself with the computer system which is able to accurately pinpoint our arty firings.
SOC and IPPT will be taken during course time but that is kept to a minimum. However be expected to go for another 12,16 and 24km marches, not to mention various navigation and tactical route marches

1. You are posted to ATEC.
2. Your vocation is RIFLEMAN (Gosh).
3. You are to report to: Pasir Laba Camp, BLK 120, RM #02-08.

Reporting Date/Time: 25/06/2007 at 0800 hrs.

Person to report to: Chief Clerk

Contact Number: 67945270

You are required to report in smart no.4 uniform (PES E recruits to be in No 3 uniform), except for those assigned to Police Force.

4. Special Instruction:
No Camera Handphone is allowed. You are not required to bring along the SAF issued items given during BMT, except for PT Kit. Check with your unit whether you are required to stay in.

Been lurking in these forums for quite a while.

It seems that I'm posted as an ATEC rifleman but surprisingly for a rifleman I am not required to report there with the SAF issued items. So does that mean I don't have to wear LBV etc? Or will they issue new items for me?

What do I carry my personal items, toiletries etc in when I report there tomorrow? Can I put them in a field pack since I don't think CV bag is allowed.

And yeah I know ATEC is a stay-in unit.

DestroWave SG

Eh, then what about the 155 and 155SPH?

hagejae SG

hmm what exactly do u wish to enquire on?

DestroWave SG

What is the difference between them? And ya, soc, RM, ippt.

hagejae SG

as the name suggests, 155mm SPH (21SA)means 155mm self propelled howitzer. other arty units use towed guns.
although common sense tells us that arty is always behind our own troops and not at the front line, gunners still have to do SOC and IPPT, but you will be glad to know that u do not have to do anymore route marches.

simple_man SG

155mm gunner....

I am sure the posting order is for 21SA located at Kranji camp. You will be trained in the operating and combat role of a primus gun crew. You will either become a ammo loader, a driver or ammo carrier for ur NSF duty.

However, rest assured that the primus is a very modern weapon so manual labour is minimum. However, be warned that one Arty round is about 40kg and you WILL have to carry it.

Expect alot of PT from th unit. 21SA works with the principle of ultimate fitness. So expect to get Gold in your IPPT by your second yr window. And yes expect alot of SOC.

Your course will be about 10 weeks with an exercise GIant to determine which role suits you best. Drive well, and enjoy the course or it will be sad.

And yes, you are going to Cavalier battery.

Btw, i was a detachment commander there not too long ago so i know the sytle of the battallion.

DestroWave SG

Sorry, I think my post was a bit unclear. Mine is ATRY OPR – 155MM(23SA) in Khatib.
