How many Mohan can there be in Armour?Originally posted by Slywong:Kena 3 from GSB before because of some area cleaning and when report back to Mohan, he said Fuck It!!! hahaha....
As mentioned, he was my section instructor when I was at SOA. Our section grown quite close to him and coincidentally, our entire section was posted back to 40 SAR in the same company......When Mohan was transfer to our company as CSM....all our specialists immediately happy like @#$@#%@. Once office hour over, all of us would gather at the mess and drink beer and play snooker......
I attended ADSL in Mid 91, Sgt Mohan(old ranking system) was our course pl sgt. He is one of the nicest Pl sgt that i have encountered, basically we did not get tekan(except once) throughout the course.(To be frank we are very surpised, as we get loads of tekan in SAFINCOS).
During that time, i remember hearing that this old sgt kena condemn leow lah..do all sort of funny things, as he drinks alot. i was told he even book in straight to range one day in civil and do a run down in civil plus sbo.
My kind of guy with beer in containers during field exercise...

Hey Armour pals, have you all heard of a tankee SSG Lee Kuan Yew (same name as SM Lee)? This guy also another terror in Armour.
I remember once during AISL in 1994, he deliberately shut off the electricity to our block bcos the OCS cadets boh chap his instruction to lights-off according to the routine order when SSG Lee was the DO. I even heard from the cadets that once when he was the DO, before he reaches the Sungei Gedong ammo dump, he will sneak into the ammo dump theu leopard crawl to check on the prowlers whether they are doing a good job or not. -
Think there are only 1 Mohan and from your description. That our GUY!!!.
Anyway, to confirm.....thin indian fellow.......curly hair....sharp nose.....deep-setted eyes....like to drink Tiger Beer.....
During 1 of the exercise at Wallaby, he had a bit too much to drink the following night, so when we were moving off in the wee early morning, 27 VC went to wake him up and he told the VC, tell OC he got stomach upset, cannot move out with us, reporting sick.
Whole company moved out without him.......
In the afternoon, he joined back the company.....OC asked him how was his stomach upset and he said fine........
Since then, it has become a story we always relate whenever we drink with him....Originally posted by kops21:How many Mohan can there be in Armour?

He also anothe condamned case.......
There are many stories about this fellow..........People witnessed him kicking stray dog that stray too near to him.... Some even relate of him grabbing a stray cat and flinging it against the wall......
We AISL course of '93 also kena from him during the hell week...... He was the DO that night...........We came back from the tekaning/servicing of the vehicle, we carried all the weapons(0.5/GPMG/M16/84 etc etc) from the vehicle shed to the company line.........(all AISL trainees would know the distance).....DAMN BLOODY TIRED LIAO!!!!! Finished cleaning the weapons and send arms.....it was already 2am.......
30 mins later, he shouted at us and ordered us to draw all weapons out again to clean because it is not clean.......Lan-Lan we draw all weapons out again to clean....... He was standing on the 2nd floor telling us....you guys voluntarily draw out to clean one.....I did not force you to clean one......after listening damn tulan
By the time we send in our arms, it was already closed to 4am......sent arms.....took a quick shower.......fall on bed........got up at 5:30am to re-draw arms again...........
Heard that he was beaten up outside the camp and he was dishonorably discharged from service. Drunk and got into a fight with officer or WO.........Originally posted by flash9933:Hey Armour pals, have you all heard of a tankee SSG Lee Kuan Yew (same name as SM Lee)?

Once, my CSM in 41SAR told me that SSG Lee even swallow a dark skin lizard live when this poor little chap crawl onto the chalk board SSG Lee used for lecturing to his men back in the mid 80s ... eeeeieOriginally posted by Slywong:He also anothe condamned case.......
Before I left SOA, heard from lao chiao that he was posted to some ASEAN countries to serve there. -
He was posted to Brunei.......Cause one of our tank commander was attached to the armour camp there.....he was offered to extend his stay in Brunei but on hearing SSG Lee going to be posted there, he immediately opt out and came back to Singapore to rejoin the unit.......Originally posted by flash9933:Before I left SOA, heard from lao chiao that he was posted to some ASEAN countries to serve there. -
I think today's Armour, we will not see such "terror" in the formation already ... most of the warrant officers are old birds whom just want to breeze through the remaining years in their career. Even the Armour officers have a handful of scholars to "lead" the units.Originally posted by Slywong:He was posted to Brunei.......Cause one of our tank commander was attached to the armour camp there.....he was offered to extend his stay in Brunei but on hearing SSG Lee going to be posted there, he immediately opt out and came back to Singapore to rejoin the unit.......

Dear fellow Armour warriors,
being from School Of Armour during my NSF days, I decided I cannot stand by and not join in this conversation!!!
After hearing all of you talk about the different terrors in the camps, I would like to highlight one other terror, anybody heard of this Warrant Officer called Joseph Tan? During my NSF time, 95-97, he was a 2WO not certain about now but should at very least be 1WO by now if not even higher.
Anyone know him and had any experiences? Would like to hear yours before I relate mine to you -
