if insults are going directed at people's parents, then i think u don't really deserve any form of sympathy as a human being. -
Hmm ..can't really recall either. One of the famous PTIs from 2nd Guards nickname MonkeyGod did tell us the story abt the disbandment of 2 Guards, and that was back in 2003.Originally posted by insouciant:And why not 3 Guards instead of 2?
Look for Joshua1975. He is from 2 Guards. he should be able to provide a clear and concise account. -

Bcuz she was sure she could bring me up well and teach me manners. Can't say the same for some else.Originally posted by coffeeortea:why didnt your mother have an abortion? -
Just off topic, but 22 SA was also disbanded. When did it take place?

... if we are referring to the same monkey god PTI in 7 BTS ....Originally posted by one-niner:he was a guardsman from 2 Guards.After 2 Guards was closed, he decided to become a PTI, and 7 BTS, the old Nee Soon Camp was his playground.
he was already in 7 BTS during the early 90s holding the rank of 2SG. During that time, 2 Guards was still around. 2 Guards was closed down in the late 90s?? -
well i not too sure abt the exact dates as it was my brother who was under him during his BMT. The infamous PT field with the big lampposts. and the pizza numbers..the SOC sessions...Originally posted by flash9933:... if we are referring to the same monkey god PTI in 7 BTS ....

I encountered Monkey God when i was on course in pasir leba camp for the AOC Instructor course and he was the conducting the course, teaching us how to conduct the AOC.Then one of the days, it was CAT one and we were at the training shed where he talked abt his early army days. -
haha ...more than that man ..he also conducted Log PT in the past. it was 1 hr of pure pain as the log was never below the shoulder level for the entire 1 hr session according to what my brother told me last time ...Originally posted by ToffeeClub1929:Rumour has it that he is really fxxking fit and fxxking sadist

so....why was 2GDS disbanded?
-
Hmm.. I am speculating....Originally posted by nightzip:so....why was 2GDS disbanded?
It could be because of the "manpower" crunch during the 90s... because of falling birthrates....
Also during that time there was more emphasis on NSmen being "operationally ready".
So maybe they decide to cut out one active Gds Bn and then maybe use one NS Gds Bn as the 3rd Bn for the 7th Gds Brigade.
Initially the different units like 1st, 2nd, 3rd Gds and HQ 7th Brigade are in at least 2-3 seperate location.
I think there was a move to centralize them.... i think now there are all in Dieppe baracks the ex-home of the kiwi 1st Infantry Bn.
So i guess during the time where they move the Gd Units, somehow 2nd seems more convenient to disband whereas 1st and 3rd are centralized together with the Brigade HQ. -
ORD loh!

2 Guards opening back soon.
closed due to not enough manpower.
open again because of the dragon year 1988 batch.
think open somewhere in 2007 or 2008. (not too sure) -

Back in the 1990 period during my active days, the section size was reduced from 9 to 7.
There were 3 Gds Bn, there was rumour that there will be a 4th Gds! but that didn't materialize. -
Some folks nicknamed 1 SIR as the 4th Guards battalion.Originally posted by spencer99:There were 3 Gds Bn, there was rumour that there will be a 4th Gds! but that didn't materialize.
