hudax1 SG The Army selection has a system to choose which recruit goes to which 'vocation' They look at your Jogging in 1. 5 Km. I f you are 14 mins you go Infantry if more POWER, you go somewhere else..This system if i am not wrong comes directly from UK SYSTEM!!!
GenX SG i dun know where u got your source but running 1.5 Km in 14 mins is easy as hell for a 17-20 years old guy. I would think that only the more obese people can fail to run under that timing. But regards to if there is really a system where they use to allocate vocation,i am not sure on that.
ToffeeClub1929 SG when was this system implemented? me never came across leh...cannot run also throw into infantry.....then over there, they 'whack' you until can run
Hidetox SG ???who told u tis wat 1.5km? all ran 2.4km wat??in army so long i nv run 1.5b4…even training also at least 2.5km..and regard abt running 14min in 1.5km..mild obese sure can all do it 1..did u saw mild obese running 9.13min in 2.4? haha… and also..u can run tat timming means u go infrantry… i dun tink so ar.. alot of my fren pass ippt or even get timming of 10min in 2.4 still go driver
JennTS SG i get tired just by walking up the damn stairs. ah well don't need to serve ns anyway lalalala.
fudgester SG Huh? Where did you get this info from? Passing time for 2.4km is 12:20. If what you say is true, then doesn't this mean that most of us will be CDO standard?
CoolMyth SG No lah, they just see your face. If you got "officer" face, OCS If you got "sergeant" face, SISPEC If you got "lanjiao" face + "garang" attitude, "chiong sua" unit If you got only "lanjiao" face, god bless you lah....

lwflee SG I think he means 1.5 miles. I also think he doesn’t know what he is talking about. The British Army’s fitness standards are far higher than ours.
