I vaguely remember the backing colour (behind the stars) has got something to do with whether its COA, CNV or CAF's car. Red being Army, Blue is either navy or airforce.... it has been too long, can't remember. I stand to be corrected on this though.
And yes, if you're in uniform (and if you can be bothered) and you see COA in the car, you would salute him. -
ok, i say what
IF
i emphasize IF
one day, walking back home from camp, u are walking back to ur block, u see a say a 1 star general walking towards you (but he is not WALKING TO YOU), what are u suppose to do. (both of you are in uniform). -
2 silver squares? not 1 star?Originally posted by Gordonator:1 star general above their number plate are 2 silver squares.

of course you salute him. how often you get a chance to salute to a general?Originally posted by kwlee:ok, i say what

Hmm, don't think any General would walk around his estate in his No.3.But if it's at an official function like some Army Conference, I might..Originally posted by dragg:like i said we dont see generals in person everyday. i will salute him given the opportunity. it is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. -

yea its normal. an air force 2 star stays at my place. the 2 star plate is put on the car to indicate that the general is the car. if hes not in, they will flip the plate over to show the black sideOriginally posted by bismarck:was accompanying my gran from hospital when i noticed this benz(think e class, cant remember) with a MID plate and i noticed this thing abv it's front licence plate. there's 2 stars mounted on this plate abv the licence plate itself.
not sure if tehre are those small flags on the car (what do u call them?)

Maybe Garrison Attire, with the MINDEF logo..I wonder if the shop owner once served in the same BMT platoon as him..Originally posted by Gordonator:hope he's not wearing the grey army admin shirt. -
ok so back to the topic of cars. not only do generals and COLs have their own 2 or 3 MID car, LTCs also can have their own MID car, except that it is 6 digits.

BGs and Above are entitled to a MID Grade 1/2 Car (Audi or Merc)
Army Chief and Service Chiefs have red backing for the star
Airforce Chief has a light blue backing for the star.
Navy Chief has a dark blue backing for the star.
CDF and Joint Chiefs have all the red/light blue/dark blue backing.
These cars are for visits only la...
My boss never drive with a star one..He drives his own E200
