you kanna posted to where commando, diver or guards?
as long as you suck it up, is good experience for your mental strength when you look back after you finish ns.
just keep telling yourself "you're an elite, unlike those officers!" in order to suck it up and put through.
at the end of it all, you find yourself asking this "how did i manage to put through? when i can chose the easy way out by getting out of course".
i got injury during attachment so chose to drop out but only to regret it later.
in ns life you need a bit of luck here and there in order to make it through or at least do something slack which is what most people wanted.
You know how my platoon sergeant (staff sergeant then when I was doing my BMT more than 15 years ago), who was a special forces instructor went through the US navy seals training. While being punished by the angmoh instructor, he just keep scolding them with all the hokkien vulgar language he knows. When the ang moh instructor asked him what he is saying, he just shrugged and say, " just motivating myself!"
huh! I also got injured during my BMT, so got out of course, but I don't care about being elite SAF, cause its not my career path...

actually self pride varies from person to person.
the bmt back then in your time is certainly tougher than what we are having now.
maybe if your parents complained about it back then, who knows we could have easier bmt now
but i find bmt in mono intake to be whole lot easier as compared to tekong.
I think on the first day can bring. On POP also can la. Else how to take pictures.
Give Col Ishak a call ;p ( If he is still the commander of BMTC )

I'm from pegasus company...next to the cookhouse, but must wind here and there just to march to cookhouse for meals....
To survive BMT is to follow instructions...simple. Do it and nobody will tekan you. Only problem is that there will be some people in your platoon/section who are deviants which will make life difficult for the rest....trust me...there are such ppl.
If you're PES C9 like me, BMT will be the most "shiong" part of your NSF life. If not, it is just the beginning...
