No sure about now, during my time (mid 90s) there were many (at least 15) non swimmers in my cohort, me includedOriginally posted by lktlkygr:If i cant pass the swimming test, is it possible for me to go OCS?

). Most of us came out as pretty good swimmers, few remained as "sinkers". -
Well wonder are those replies coming from old generation army
well okie to pass the swimming test in bmt... 50m breaststroke aka frog style is needed only. However a standard lap lah meaning ur breaststroke is proper.... one breath one stroke... not 2 breath 1 stroke...freestyle mix breast stroke etc etc all cannot.
Well if cannot pass den have to attend swimming lesson loh in swimming trunks... if u cant swim.. well how can they throw u all in water with army fatigue haha. Drown sia...
When u pass their swimming test.. there is no reason they will stop u from going ocs. However in ocs... i think u need to swim again but this time more laps.... -
Nah..people who can't pass their swimming in BMT can still go to OCS..
Anyway in OCS, for any water activities with combat load, they wear life vests...TSR TSR
