Have heard a similar story from a good friend who was an OCT back in '96-97. After a hard slog in Tekong for a few days, for the last night my friend's platoon were allocated to sleep on the floor on the barracks in the old abandoned Ladang camp (next to the old bumboat jetty - Tekong old timers like me will know the places I'm talking about). Its not comfortable, but it beats the open ground (I've been there, trust me it makes the old Camp 1 look nice).
Anyway, after sleeping deeply through the night, one of the OCTs awoke next morning to find a long strand of black hair looking almost like it was laid neatly next to his groundsheet. The OCTs all had hair as short as recruits, and as the camp was abandoned and Tekong had no female recruits/trainees there (they were all at Nee Soon those days) it really freaked the whole platoon out. On hindsight, more than one would have preferred their chances outdoors.
BTW, anyone have any stories about East Ramp in Tekong? (known as dirtiest place in Tekong then). I only got to see it in daytime during my time there (probably a good thing) -

i juz heard this from my friend, he's from another coy in my unit.
his coy always have encounters lah anyway this is his encounter...
sometimes back, he was confined for the weekend along with a few others. since most of the coy has already booked out, his bunk only left him and 1 or 2 ppl. during the night when he was sleeping, he felt a bright light shining at him, juz like someone's shining a searchlight at him. when he opened his eyes, he saw a figure with long hair n wearing white (typical description rite? but apparently it's true) standing in the bunk. already scared at this point, he quickly closed his eyes. a while later when he opened his eyes again, the figure was actually standing right in front of him, from then on he never opened his eyes until morning when someone wake him up for breakfast... he told me apparently the occupants of that particular bed always kena disturbed, often like being shined by a light... -

same story with my cousin..he was a storeman at old Tekong camp..
but its not "someone" in white..its a woman in red holding on to a child floating up and down in the bunk...n my cousin was sleeping on the top..imagine that.same thing..he just pretend to sleep.. -
yes, i've heard of them too... hahaOriginally posted by wuming78:ur coy oso got some interesting stories... heh. -
My friend had this encounter of seeing a fireball flew past the window and it is not only him who saw it.
During Bmt, one of my fellow recruit woke up seeing the whole bunk in stand by bed position...Thinking that he was the only 1 left, he quickly changed to long 4. One can really imagine his horror when he realised that the rest of the "platoonmates" do not have a head... -
I am quite surprise that no one talk abt the famous case in the 80s where there was a Rec was missing during a route march where he was later found dead in the morning in Tekong.There were many version of the story ,below was one version where get it from a quote from another forum abt this case:
I was just a few batch after the charlie 13 incident. Many version to the story but mine should be closiest to authencity since I was from the same company, SAME platoon! Platoon 9 bed 13 so I heard. Now the bunk is converted into a lecture room. Like one of the brothers stated, it happened in a route march, the guy went missing, then cannot find him, by nightfall gone. Next morning, found his cut open body (and it was said the cut wound was from INSIDE OUT using the the standard issue chengkol blade) the intestines was displayed on a basha sheet/ground sheet, in inspection order, like the way we display our fullpack. His body was wrap up place back in the bunk before being taken away by the black car. It was believed that his spirit was still trapped in the bunk as his buddy who was sleeping on the top of the double deck bed, (which is one reason why after that incident no more double deck bed in Charlie company platoon 9) was flunk down and was wounded quite badly. A priest was asked to see what can be done and it was suggested by the priest that the third door to be made for the exit of the spirit. After that they nailed up the third door.

BTW I was a Rec from Charlie coy Tekong Camp 1 few years after the incident, there was indeed the three door bunk & only three door bunk in the whole of camp1 ,it was converted to lecture hall, it was always locked up & no one to go near there or even to do area cleaning, now to think abt it , kind of scary, as you know there is no dirty bunk in the SAF even it was not been used especially since there were so many Rec for you to order about.
I was in there once for posting out, it was extremely dirty for SAF standard, after that we were told to leave and it was locked up again.
Below is another version of the same case, the story teller claimed to be having first hand account of the incident:It is a well-known fact that Pulau Tekong has a number of ghosts. Some of you readers may have read or heard about the ghost at Charlie Company at the old basic military camp I. Unfortunately, some versions that I read or heard have been distorted over the years.
Here, I hope to set the record straight. Instructors and trainees of Charlie Company, Infantry Training Depot during the March-June 1983 period can vouch for my version of the story. It is NOT my intention to revive hurtful memories especially for the bereaved family or to blame anyone, but purely to narrate facts as they had happened.
The starting point of this true story should be the 16 Km route march about 18 years ago. Before the march, the Officer Commanding of the company asked the trainees whether anyone was sick or not feeling well. No one put up his hand. But there was a trainee among the company, Recruit Tham W.K., who was down with flu but did not put up his hand.
Then the route march started. The platoons took turns to lead the company after each break during the route march. Sometimes, the pace of the march became too hot for some trainees, who could not keep pace and had to fall out. They became stragglers and had to be picked up by a few instructors walking at the rear of the company. The landrover with the medical orderly was also supposed to be at the rear.
Somehow, Tham fell out and managed to slip out of view by taking cover in the forest. He was not to be seen alive again.
During subsequent rest breaks, there were head-counts. He was presumed to be with the medical orderly. It was only in the evening after the route march, when the the rifles were due to be returned to the armoury, that they realised Tham was missing. They went to the medical centre but he was not there. The instructors feared the worst. Overnight, they organised a night-search party for him, re-tracing the 16-Km route taken earlier in the day. They could not find him.
The next day, the entire Camp I ceased training and batches of instructors and trainees were dispatched to find Tham. It was only about 5 p.m. that his own platoon commander (PC) found his corpse. Near a forest track junction, the PC noticed a half-pictched tent. He called out but there was no response. As he neared the tent, he noticed many flies buzzing around and detected a foul stench. There lay before him his dead trainee, lying with one hand holding his rifle and the other hand outstretched with a water bottle, with its cover opened. The PC broke down in tears and wept openly.
(A subsequent post-mortem showed that Tham had apparently died of stomach rupture. When his body system was still hot from the heat of the route march, against the advice of instructors, he had apparently gulped down massive amounts of water suddenly. It was like pouring ice cubes into a thin glass of hot water, which can cause the glass to crack. But the post mortem also found puncture marks on his body, which could not be satisfactorily explained to this day.)
It was left to the Company Sergeant Major and his landrover driver to drive the corpse back to camp for transfer to the mortuary. It was twilight at that time. Inexplicably, the engine could not start. The thought of the two of them spending the night with the corpse unnerved them. But eventually, they somehow had the engine started and returned safely to base.
The late Tham was promoted to NCO and cremated at Mount Vernon with full military honours. As the company trainees lined the road snaking up to the crematorium to salute our late comrade, it was a heart-breaking sight to see a distraught mother being supported by two daughters following the hearse.
A few instructors returned to the site where he departed from this world, to offer incense and prayers. One instructor asked the late Tham not to come back and haunt us, but rather to express his last wishes in a dream so that his soul could rest in peace after his wishes were fulfilled.
But Tham did not listen.
Incident 1: One of the instructors came to the Platoon 9 bunk to remove his personal effects. When he opened up his metal cupboard, there was a foul stench from inside that could not be explained.
Incident 2: In the dead of the night, some trainees of Charlie Company heard Tham's voice shouting for the platoon or company to fall in at the common company compound.
Incident 3 (more scary): One of the platoon 9 section mates woke up in the middle of the night and saw the white figure of Tham's ghost standing in front of his former cupboard ! He bolted to the next double-decker bed, grabbed to share his blanket and said "ghost!" The next morning, the platoon mates could see two trainees pale and ashened by the encounter.
Incident 4: During one of the subsequent route marches (by Golf Company), the company noticed a figure of a soldier in full battle order standing in the distance among some trees. The OC (a former Commando Captain) dashed forward to take a closer look. He quickly ordered the whole company to double past without slowing down to see what he saw. Subsequent route marches were diverted to avoid that area of sighting.
It's been a long time since I last set foot on Pulau Tekong in June 1983. But I heard that the bunk in which the late Tham used was converted into a lecture room and subsequently into a store room. The room was installed with padlocked doors for obvious reasons.
Over the years, generations of trainees who became instructors passed down their version of Tham's story by word of mouth, which unfortunately got distorted in the process.
May his soul rest in peace. -
puncture marks?
what could have make those marks?? -
Now it is time for own stories,even though they r not not first hand account( lucky for me , never encountered any incident during my 2.5years svc),rather second hand which i could vounch.
1. It was well known that the area in SOC's Jacob ladder of Tekong camp 1 (near the coast, overlooking Changi)was haunted by a lady ghost which I hv found out years later. The story concern this area.
It was after BMT, after which we were given 5 days leaves b4 POP. Some of my platoonmate were to stay back to do "remedial training", more like area cleaning.So after dinner , they r free do to what ever they want, so the whole group went to Jacob Ladder to look at night light from SG,suddenly one "white floating thing" flew across their view, they were so scared that they all ran back to the bunk.One of them, was so scared that he actually ran against a pillar & got swollen head when he hit his head against it.
During POP, his head was still swollen, so I asked him what had happened,he did not say anything,but the rest told me how he got his swollen head.
2.Next incident was during my course in Sugei Gedong Camp1,in those days Sugei Gedong has only Camp1 & 2, they were separated.It was known that the rear gate area was extremely "dirty".
It happen during my guard duty, one detail saw "something" there,& were so scared stiff that they ran back to the Guard room, later the Guard Cdr told us not to prowl over there for the nite.
3.This story was told to me by my platoonmate after posted out from Tekong.He claimed that he has what some ppl called the " third eye".
He claimed that during nite when he was there , he sometime "saw" & "heard" Japanese troop marching in Tekong Camp1.
Historical Note:
It was known that during WW2 , the Japanese troop had executed many ppl along the coast of Tekong and bodies dumped into the sea.
Sugei Gedong & Area D was the site of first Japanese landing of SG. It was the site of some fierce fighting over there, many were killed. -
