Unit life?
-
I know being posted to be a man have to go through the vocation course first.. which is usually the most xiong part...
But is it true that after the course, our unit life become's somewhat a little more relaxed? More nights off, more slacking time in bunk.. Occasionally go for exercise or mission..
And i always hear abt tvs, fridges, etc beign allowed in bunks... Or after breakfast go back bunk slp... or play carrom whole day...
How exactly is life like in unit? -
it depends on your vocation.
-
my fren seems to be enjoying tho..besides the 3km march and xiong PT..
one thing's for sure...there's really good food..perhaps even better than the simple-fare we consume at home..
and if ur lucky..at breaks or lunchtime,u can see gurls who sign up for NS..some butches tho..

My vocation is ADA..
Heard from a Sir that the 3 months course is VERY tough, but managable. After that, it will be more relaxed with frequent nights off..
I dont know if that's true, abt the nights off and relaxed part. But i hear alot abt the tvs and fridges and lotsa free time things from ppl from different vocations/units. -
yup, for lets say for infantry units.
ACT==> Whatever course (signallers, scouts, pioneer, guards, etc) ==>ops, unit
ACT= siong, normally maybe 1 nights-off per week. +COS, guard duty, etc, time table, still mostly on weapons trying, ind. field craft, tactics, section attacks, platoon attacks, section ambush, platoon harbouring, defence, etc.
Basically can expect 1 wk siong, 1 wk not so siong.
Whatever course= normally depends, if your the man, then normally also 1 nights off per week max. Siongness depends on course.
Units = 1 wk platoon, company mission exercise, another week UC, IPPT, endurance training, SOC, AOC, games, body maintenance, standby, alert-ambers, reds, etc. (alternate these stuff, for 2 years!
) (Expect 3-4 nightoffs even when the week nothing to do.) -
Just relax and let nature take its course is my advice...
Training time kp very siong..but when the time comes when all you do is sleep in the bunk...trust me its hard not to go crazy cos there's NOTHING TO DO AT ALL.... -
at least they treat u more like a man in a unit. let u think for yourself, instead of telling u what to do, what not to do, as a trainee.

When xiong is si beh xiong
When relax is v relac
Less regimental than trg skools, but have min standard of discipline la.
Unit Life definitely the BEST !
