  I posted the following and it was dismissed as "bullshit": How sad.......
  
  "When was the last time SAF got into a battle?
  
  1964 I think, when 2 SIR was called upon to help in defending Kota Tinggi from Indonesian Paras during Confrontation.
  
  One platoon came to a river and decided to take a wash.......as they were playing in the water, Indonesian Paratroopers appeared and shot the lot of them. At least nine were killed and many wounded.
  
  The Indon paras then went from body to body to cut off their genitals and then shaft the penises into the moutns of the dead soldiers............
  
  The bodies were taken back to camp at Holland Road........."

  The 2 SIR story is true. Even the location of the camp (at Holland Road) is correct.
  
  But the genital part, hmmm ......

  Yes, the story does hold some substance. Some of the senior WOs can still belt out a portion of this incident, although non would say how accurate their stories are.

  More details of the Ambush::
  
  A sentry was posted when the platoon when for their swim/bath.
  
  The sentry fell asleep
  
  When the shooting started, he played dead...clever fellow...
  
  Story has it that following this ambush, 2SIR refused to take any prisoners alive..............
  
  As for the Indon paras, some of whom parachuted into Labis, survived in the Johor jungles for more than a year without outside supply ...........................commendable tenacity..........

  When you don't plan well, you plan to fail. You slack during a serious mission, you pay the consquences...
