[darksaint87]

if can go sispec and ocs better go. when u pass out from there cfm got sgt or 2lt rank, after that u can f*** the next batch of rec. anyway thats the cycle in ns i think

[jemlow]

LOL School 2 NINJA ah, skycheong and me also from there last time!

Now NS so eng after so many death incidents very "CARE for soldiers no worries!"

[HellHunter]

Ohhh my. Haha..nevermind ah..be positive ah..but seriously..after you go through N-coy BMT, most SISPEC coy's shouldnt be much of a challenge. Unless you get Delta or something. Or just use any medical condition you have and downgrade la. :P Really depends on what you want out of your NS life.

[long2008]

ns now so weak

Actually not too true. Only a small group go onto Advanced Section Leader Course and become 3SG. Most stop after Basic Section Leader Course and become CPL. But you will atleast be above the PTE's and REC's although you still have to chiong sua when they chiong sua if you're combat side.

very true. the training programme in Ninja coy is so intensive that the advance courses after pop shouldnt be any kick (physically), only depends on how you endure those cursing and swearing from the commanders.

SHIT FOR SOLDIER

Where have you been posted to while waiting for your driver course?

Wrong. even if you OOC in ASLC you'll still become an 3SG. as long as you pass out of BSLC you'll be guaranteed of 3SG unless you DG. those who don't go to ASLC will be sent to armor spec, arti spec, engr spec, sig spec and other spec course. iirc now medic spec also need to go thru bslc liao.

[gunners46]

comon man just endure, these few mths of ur bmt is just the warm up...
think ur FBO is heavy? wait till u get to a combat unit.

[darksaint87]

Where have you been posted to while waiting for your driver course?


i am assigned to keat hong MT line as perm driver there. but since i havent go for course everyday do area cleaning, vec painting, etc, watever shit work u can think of.

[bladeknight]

of couse ns sucks. nobody like that.

[bluecoral]

frankly speaking,

although i dun like the compulsory of serving NS
but i do agree that most boy grow up after their NS...
and well i do kinda of enjoy my NS life and with my comrades ...
we do have great time together and well we are still good friends till now...

my advise to those who just went in:
dun keep harping on the fact that NS is shit ... cos firstly u need to serve NS tat is a LLST fact.
thus why not make it a enjoyable one ...

in life it is the same... although the job u got is sucky but then u still need to think about your future and in future ur family...
can u really say quit then quit...

[networked]

I agree with what blue coral says. The first u learn stepping into tekong is to be Positive. And u will leave ur unit after 2 years with positivity in your duffel bag.

[darksaint87]

and duffel bag is really darn heavy for positiveness. lol

[bluecoral]

wah liew ... nowadays guys are getting weaker lah ...
nbz now got wheels liao ... last time dun even got wheels ... have to drag till siao...
still grumble....

i get my new duffel bag like air stewardess just minus the LV logo

[MeDiC]

and duffel bag is really darn heavy for positiveness. lol

duffel bag now got wheels lor...kns..my time one big alibaba bag with no wheels!!

[MeDiC]

wah liew ... nowadays guys are getting weaker lah ...
nbz now got wheels liao ... last time dun even got wheels ... have to drag till siao...
still grumble....

i get my new duffel bag like air stewardess just minus the LV logo

haha...we post same thing arnd same time..

[MeDiC]

Wrong. even if you OOC in ASLC you'll still become an 3SG. as long as you pass out of BSLC you'll be guaranteed of 3SG unless you DG. those who don't go to ASLC will be sent to armor spec, arti spec, engr spec, sig spec and other spec course. iirc now medic spec also need to go thru bslc liao.

medic spec have to go thru Spec 2 course at SMM too..but during my time no need BSLC

[Afigo]

agreed with blue coral... im doing my ns now...and frankly i enjoy it not because im surrounded by female paramedics... tats a plus i guess...for me ns is time for boys to grow up ... when will see a spoilt child wash a toilet bowl ..? when will you learn how to endure mental tortures and endure punishment when its not a punishment to begin with..? and when will do it together with all your buddies beside you... ppl need to step out of the negatives and think abt the positives for a change... i know you dun have ur "freedom" anymore.. but its just 2 years and training is not so teruk as last time...

[networked]

LOL.

yes i saw it during my last in camp. And i got one of it for my fbo whenever i drag my shit into the mrt and bus back.

Trust me if u got it tough now in NS, it will def sculpture your mindset in future for other challenges.

[darksaint87]

wah liew ... nowadays guys are getting weaker lah ...

no pun intended lah relac bro.... lol. duffel is really heavy when hand-carried regardless of wheels or without.

[networked]

Darksaint, don't forget u gain muscle and nice figure during ur stay there. And u must have some $ for ur gadgets. Last time pay is quite bad. After deductin this and tat, only left about $100 or $200. Either u save it or spend part of it to pay snacks to share back in camp.

[MeDiC]

no pun intended lah relac bro.... lol. duffel is really heavy when hand-carried regardless of wheels or without.

i was only a puny 1.65 m and 50 kg..my duffel bag had my full pack, SBO, helmet and some other barangs..i still find it ok..not the really heavy...dun tell me now boys getting weaker?

[darksaint87]

dark i not shooting at u but in general...


i understand but read previous post :)

[networked]

the thing I observed is during ns for me, I never played fps for 2 and 1/2 yrs. hahah. During that time, I find it very retarded. Cmon, PC fps, u can't even feel the farking weight of the rifle and recolt. How realistic can it be? I am laughing my arse off when i flipped 'free mags at borders that time. This stinking ang mos want to write reviews on shooting games? like realism crap etc? lol my ass.

Strangely, I ve got to admit I play fps for entertainment and killing of time after work. Life is strange, isn't it.

[DragonFire]

Hmm ask Crazy what he be doing for NS :D

Very exclusive little unit tucked away somewhere. And no it is not classified. I had fun when I was there lol.

[concept|infinit]

it really depend on what you do for NS and where you are for NS.

I love my NS and so do some of the NS guys in my side. I'm going to ORD in 3 months and I really don't know how I'll cope without this all! I've build so many good friendships and working with these people (regulars and NSF) is wonderful.

I'll either sign on after doing my degree or sign on now and do my degree part time


p.s. I didn't say which organisation I'm doing my NS with and no its not SAF or Ministry of Defence for that matter! :D I would NEVER sign on with MINDEF lol

[weib]

suck it up, bmt is heaven...don't need to think no need to take responsibility.

Once you're out in the unit, it'll be raining extras and free weekend holidays at the camp.

[noobiee]

no need. if u no license they send you for course first b4 u can drive their vec

No point trying to get license through NS man.

Seriously.

Unless you have serious financial difficulty.

Drivers are usually those who have injury and OOT but mainly those who are PES BP.. our heavier friends. You wont get into driver if you are combat fit. Its a blue berret vocation. :)

There are conditions before the army gives you a civvie license...and one of which is that you only get it once you ORD.

I heard u need to clock 7000KM to convert to Class 3, if those drivers posted to Tekong, GG.. how e hell to clock 7000km in 1yr+ ? :cool:

[bluecoral]

tekong drivers drive everyday de...
unit drivers long long one time then drive lol...
unless u MT line ppl lol

haha
ninja now xiong meh ? ninja last time my cohort is nua one lol ...cos got girl recruit lol

me from pegasus ...

one of the most torture one i got is

during field camp after 16km route march
kanna tekan upside down
FBO alternate leg thrust i think 50 x 4
then run up to 4 floor then come back to bb court.
then push up 20 x 5 all kind of pattern one
then run up to 4 floor then come back again
then buddha clap 100 x 4 ... this one is really CCB till max

although all the above we do one is a SCREWEd up one but then after the route march u think u can tahan this kind of shit ?

[HellHunter]

Yeh true, 7,000km is pretty easy for a tekong driver and MT line drivers unless your encik doesnt like you and only gives you in-camp. lmao.

[Noxian]

Lai lai, don't give up! After your BMT come armour join me and become an armour infantry specialist. I'll give you a good welcome initiation. :D

[HG]

Now attached to 41 SAR to fight ATEC, Stage 2 coming on Sept and then go back 42 SAR take privates for trade course.. Sway like shit but what to do man.. Suck thumb and move on :D

[koohansen]

Hmm .. i ask my friend who is a driver, they say alot pray hard not to kena tekong eh. My friend, one day easily 40 ~ 60km, depending on which range they drive to. Some Times deliver lunch from Mandai to PLC :songdah2: but the ride.. si beh sianz... 50km/h takes 40mins to reach!!

Quite easy leh...lets say a rover covers safety for 8km route march...the rover can only carry about 1 medic+1 VCOM officer infront+2 marshallers behind..with 2 marshallers the rover will have to keep going back and forth to drop one off and pick the other one even behind up and drop him further ahead and so on. It makes an easy 16km just for one way...and then there's outfield...back and forth for rations/water about 6times a day...

I suppose its not major distances in a go but its pretty constant workload...there are always coys going for marches and outfield. If your MT line low on manpower then is the best haha..but lots of work..:snooze:

:D :D :D :D :D

My dad was a cop, joined in the late 60s and a friend of his was a cop in the 40s! Even in the 60s it was tough, there were frequent riots and he was in the riot Police. That was fierce.

Even tougher was being a cop in the 40s. That time gangsters were rampant and Singapore was a very dangerous place. Those cops cleaned up the streets man

Well now there are still threats but nothing like those days. One sucky thing about being a cop is how people love to blame you for everything that goes wrong even if its something you didn't do lol. Like how MSK was in the hands of ISD and not SPF but when he ran away, the general public perception is that the Police lost him LOL

[gunners46]

As long u wear green, its nv fair :D

[long2008]

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[geylangeast]

Driver is a implicit posting as it would be impertinent to NS but relevant in the future if you want to be a driver.

Do not be petulant and pray hard to be a clerk or some good paying vocation.

[Keon.SG]

no need. if u no license they send you for course first b4 u can drive their vec

wahhhhh how u get in one ? i also wanna be driver lehx ... zzzzz

Agreed. Usually recruits coming from Ninja coy will fare better at SISPEC or OCS physically. Loads of 'physical' conditioning from Ninja coy.
