Sweating Palms / Hyperhidrosis / Flat Feet
-
I heard people with sweating palms cannot carry gun and people with flat foot are excused from NS. True or not?
-
depends on how severe the conditions are. no generalisation. sweaty palms mabe exempted from firearms and explosives. flat foot can be downgraded.

I think its a case-by-case basis kinda thingy. I've got both sweaty plams AND flat feet. Still, Mindef decides to sent me to Guards as a BRC recce trooper for my National Service. Strange, yah?

Utter rubbish. My men and fellow specs had all sorts of problems, like the ones you mentioned above and even wierder ones. Still all above PES B. Do what? Cheong suah. Chao keng hardly gets you anywhere. By the way, my CSM like to make those excuse this excuse that one do more of the sai kang, so you might want to think twice.Originally posted by Ayukat:I heard people with sweating palms cannot carry gun and people with flat foot are excused from NS.

So people wun make fun of you in camp and call you names like 'butterfingers'.Originally posted by Sir_Horny:can i know y sweaty palms cannot carry guns or grenade? wats the reason?
You'll be giving the armourer a hard time if your rifle kept slipping off your hands and drop on the ground right? Can't say the same for grenades.
Ok lah, seriously, sweaty palms is not a major problem. So some ppl sweat more on thier palms, but can treat with a variety of methods available these days, so basically its still possible to be in combat roles. -
but if the sweaty palm condition is very bad one can be excused grenades.Originally posted by ditzy:Ok lah, seriously, sweaty palms is not a major problem.

probably sweaty palms to the extend that your palms would drip water when you are not doing anything... for this sure excuse grenades one...

You don't have to worry about smelly feet in NS, you'll upgrade to rotting feet while at it.Originally posted by andywalker:lol!!! how about smelly foot!!! lol

u'd need doc's letter to verify your sweaty palm status.
I have it though not very serious. I am in pes A and thrown a grenade before. -
if you flat foot, quickly go see a govt doctor, then he will write letter for you. then you will be regard as not that healthy, stay 7 weeks at tekong can already. doing pes C, relax, relax one.

Too bad, no flat foot. Why flat foot got problem? Is it because fall down easily, but I thought wear shoes all the same?

There are different types of flatfoot. Which one you talking about? Some are completely flat whether you stand or sit down, some you sit got arch, stand no arch.
