Any NSMan from 3 SIR 8th Mono ?
-
Hi people, rather new here, i was reading up some threads rgding 3 SIR with all the commando CO, RSM,C Coy CSM all SOF and the ex OC A being a Ranger and US Ranger trained.
Any one was from the famous 3 SIR 8th Mono ? If i am not mistaken, they should be under the Ns Unit 595 SIR.Very gd Bn, having being trained by Col Sukh Singh.
I'm sure there are lads out there who have heard of Col Sukh Singh and his legendary walking stick =) those who have been to CTC before 2003 will know what i mean .....
I know some ppl compare Col Sukh with Col Lo, but i beg to differ that Col Sukh has the Rommel touch "The best form of welfare is tough training" . He is a commander is gives his men tough training, but during the 595 SIR ATEC last yr ....when u see a 29 yr old soldier leopard crawling and fighting together as a cohesive unit, u know Col Sukh Singh training was well imbued in them.
Just to side track to all the officers posting here...it really bring back fond memories even here in austrialia when i am studing, the following phrase below.
"Let me tell u story, there was a boy called John...."

It's not uncommon to find CO, RSM or other officers previously from SPEC ops units, they were probably injured hence downgraded. As to the definition of ranger, a downgraded ex-SOF officer who told us frankly, they may have participated but not necessary completed the course but still given the patch even though dropped out. True rangers in singapore having really gone thru the course in US ony a small handfull. The course can really drive you insane!!Originally posted by one-niner:Hi people, rather new here, i was reading up some threads rgding 3 SIR with all the commando CO, RSM,C Coy CSM all SOF and the ex OC A being a Ranger and US Ranger trained.

3 SIR 8 Mono is not trained by Col Sukh Singh. I believe you are refering to 3 SIR 7 Mono which incidently is 595 SIR.
3 SIR 8 Mono was under Anson Lim and later changed command to the infamous Mark Tan whose exploits I shall not write in this forum. Col Sukh Singh was 10 SIB commander then and he was far more inspiring than the CO then.
I think 3 SIR 8 Mono has one of the most colorful CSMs
The Support CSM if any old timers here can recall

when this thread appeared at the SAF forum, i editted out the reserve unit codes, cos i believe they were not simple numbers for a reason, and they should be de-linked from their previous incarnation while in active. not sure if the mods here share my concern.
