  Since I have not enlisted yet, and the MO called me back in Oct again for this issue, will my enlistment be delayed? Cuz I heard from my specialist, they will usually ask me to enlist later since this coindition can be recovered.

  If yours is a temp PES C and will expire soon, they may delay your enlistment so that you will be fit for the PES B BMT and not the PES C BMT.

  I went for an interview n the interviewer asked me what my PES status is n I answered PES E.  Is this going to affect my chance to get the position?

  hi im currently in sispec and have just OOCed from ASLC. I am pending a temporary down pes to a unkown PES as the MO didnt reveal to me the pes status. my reason for down pes was due to taking accutane for my cystic acne as i didnt know it had adverse effects, what is the most likely pes i would be getting and wat kind of vocations would it come with and how long will the medical board take to decide my pes status?

  furthermore after my temp down pes will i be upgraded to my original pes of B and be revocationed again? and wat would happen if i were to do my reservist?

  also would this down pes hinder me from being able to get a 3rd sergeant rank? if not is it possible to ask the mo not to down pes me that extremely or dont down pes me at all.

  thanks for reading and i hope to get replies soon =(

  Whether you will be up PES again later on depends on whether your down PES is temp or perm. Revocation should be unlikely for your case i believe since it would be too long into your service even if you up PES back into PES B. Your reservist will generally be continuing the vocation you were doing before ORD.

  There is no chance for you ever becoming a combat 3SG. Depending on where you are posted, you might be revocated into a logistics spec and thats the best you can hope for even though the chances might not be high.

  If the MO says you should be down PES, you cannot request not to be down PES

  Hi all

  i am been given a PES of E9L9 upon enlistment. there will be a review of my pes status 6 months later.

  i am suffering from ANS (anatomic nervous dysfunction ) this was confirmed by the doctor of CGH after doing the "TILT TEST".

  i wanna ask, what will happen to me 6 months later ?

  will they up my pes ? if so do i have to do BMT ?

  Just wait and see lo. I don't think will up PES but even if they do, should not need to go BMT since PES E spents 1 week in tekong and i think that is considered their BMT liao.

  All PES E have to go through 1 week 'induction' in tekong. I never heard of direct intake for PES E.

  That will depend whether their PES is temp or perm. if its a temp PES, it will change when it expires.

  A temp PES should write it's expiry date.

  Its more things like lecture etc on military stuff, alot of just eating and sleeping since you have little to no physical activity on the PES E BMT agenda as far as i know.

  Dependable on what's written on the specialist memo, it's might be a PES C, or a PES B, with excuse lower limb activities such as run, jump, march, guard duty.
