In SAF during NS. You tend to work alot of Over time and you dont get Over time pay. WTF right?? Serve like dog. Treated like dog. Even food also dog food. Indeed we Are dogs of the military.
On Monday was my Battalion's Cohesion day. Help in Sentosa Palawan beach. It was heck of a boring day there. There are some organised activity there like soccer, volley ball, Frisbee and stuff like that. Most of us didnt take part. So went walking around doing notting untill like 12plus before we left. Two guys didnt go and one of them was from my platoon. He forgot about it and got 14 days SOL for that. The other one had to go DB. Considered AWOL.
Tuesday morning everyone booked in. After first parade we sleep all the way till lunch time. After lunch there was a some lecture on our Urban Operation Training next week. And after that back to sleep.
Wednesday morning SOC trail test. Everyone is to take part. Those who can pass second year for this test can skip training again. I walked trough the test coz I just dont give a damn. Got 16:55 for my timing. Hahax Next time I'll make a 20min record. Basket Second Year SOC test is like 2 months away and they wan me to run now. Heck no man! I already passed my first year with second year timing!
Thursday morning we did Route March with our organic weapon wearing the bullet proof vest. Walked 5km straight without break. Freaking shack. After that we went to Service our tank Straight after the march. We gotta do what every one has been doing for the pass 2 weeks to their thank. Which is wash the tank, Pull the barrel, BOS and of cause... Break Track. Our vehicle was stuck at the workshop and now its finally back. I had fun driving the tank here and there. Made a little drift also. Hahax.
Friday we had 4NTM mock turn out. Total waste of time. After that we continued on our tank servicing. Then after that we sent the tank for dip test. Where they drive the tank into a pool of water to test if it is safe for floatation. Heard it passed. Hahax Was hoping it to fail.
Next week we are going for Urban Operations outfield doing FIBUA (Fighting In Built-Up-Area). In short we are doing Real Life Counter Strike. Hope its interesting cause most of what SAF is is crap.
