If regular got decommissioned, surely will have his contract terminatedOriginally posted by Gordonator:if a NSF 2LT/LTA de-commissioned to be a CPL. how about a regular LTA?
What make u think u'll not be promoted if get promoted then go DB will extent your ORD......Originally posted by auringedotcom:Oh yeah, and just to share this stupid thought I had about being condemned after being in DB: when I was still a PTE, I ever thought of commiting some stupid offence to go DB for 7 days.
Work out the maths, 7 days of DB means I won't be promoted to CPL, which means I 'save' myself 4 extra months!
Surely this 2LT would be promoted to at least a CPLOriginally posted by auringedotcom:There was a recent high profile case where a newly comissioned 2LT was stripped of his rank and he became a PTE, my friend, who was also one of those fresh-out-of-OCS-young-punk-officer, told me that it's most likely that he will serve only 2 years of NS, as opposed to his liability of 2 years 4 months.
Apparently when you are demoted or have been to DB, you are condemned, never to have a promotion, in his case, to CPL.
Oh, and someone asked whats the highest ranking officer ever spotted in DB?
There's this guy in my office just came out of DB 2 months ago, who told me that he came across one MAJ, one LTA and a warrant officer.

Sure or not..I always see the BG in my camp's car not parked in camp leh..or he leaves camp early..Originally posted by LazerLordz:BG going AWOL will never happen la.
Yes, they can be sentenced to go DB too but very troublesome. I remember my senior medic complaining once because they sent one female to DB for a week. So KDB asked for one female medic to stay in the medical centre at night to cover, in case the MO needs chaperone to examine her in medical emergencies.Originally posted by cornyfish2000:Very few females go AWOL cos unlike the guys, the army is their ricebowl mah... career at stake leh
But i dun think they have facilities for female detainees though by law, i believe ladies can be sentenced to DB too..
No wonder... But I dun think female officers get sent to DB so farOriginally posted by oxford mushroom:Yes, they can be sentenced to go DB too but very troublesome.

All my female medics cursed and swear, cos' they also have to rotate and stay in DB overnight for the 2 weeks.

corrections. female do get to go DB. for personal reasons sometimes they go awol. particularly those with a lot of problems with husband bf type. those kind surely go awol.
met one case the husband take knife into camp and wanna tok her. in the end we confine her permanantly in camp and she can only go out when escorted by someone else.
and the reason why u almost nvr see commission offr in DB is bcos we will strip them of their rank b4 they go in. so they would be known as pte lcp cpl and so on.
there will be no major no wo no rank above lta who would retain rank and go DB. SAF will chooes to discharge dishonourable rather then to send them to DB. cos discharge is considered a more serious punishment cf to DB.
there was a case of a wo omolesting some nsf. mindef legal service wanna strip him of rank and throw him in DB. but defending offr argue that discharge more serious punishment. in the end. no DB just discharge. move was endorsed by the upper crabs ppl and the defending offr was a trained lawyer
interesting
I doubt soOriginally posted by kengkia:what will happen if u awol for second time...will u be revocated when u come out?
