New patches on SAF uniforms.
-
Heard from one of my reservist friend tat come july 1st 2006, our uniform on the upper left pocket will have the wording SINGAPORE. Also on your left collar, some arms logo.......and formation logo on your right upper arm. Those regulars/NSF please confirm this???
-

Wah lao eh,Originally posted by Manager433:Picture taken from keeptouch:
want to follow other armies liao... US army, Indon army all got their Country above pocket.
But their's more sensible... they put like "US Army" or indo, "TNI AD"
Our's "SINGAPORE" like no meaning leh, should put like "3G ARMY" or "SAF", or better yet put "PROPERTY OF SAF"
anyway, where was this picture from? plus with the new one, where does the rank go? collar? -
Like the US army uniform.Heard of this rumor since last year.Originally posted by Manager433:Heard from one of my reservist friend tat come july 1st 2006, our uniform on the upper left pocket will have the wording SINGAPORE.

Ranks might be on the collar for Specialists and below.
Singapore on the upper left pocket?I thought it would be Army , Air Force or Navy.
-
what's the difference between arms and formation?
-
already seen some in my camp already. but only for those who go for overseas mission.
-
its true. there will be a singapore tag, an arms badge, and a unit patch.
-
but u see the uniform can know its which dept, Navy is lite blue, Navy white...mah.Originally posted by LazerLordz:Like the US army uniform.Heard of this rumor since last year.

Wha... that would be ugly... like the typical Kuomingtang era uniform.. so obian .. not professional at all.
It would make SAF look weak... I mean look at the waestern uniforms. -
another of their steps toward a 3G SAF ah?
-
I GUESS is formation is which Parent unit you belong to like PDF or Division.Originally posted by relackjack:what's the difference between arms and formation?
Arms is like your vocational training whether you are a guards, infantry or what.
just my guess. -
3G SAF, that's why i say they should use the words "3G ARMY" as the patch than "SINGAPORE"Originally posted by Gordonator:another of their steps toward a 3G SAF ah?
Anyway, if they want to go 3G, might as well make Dri-Fit Number 4. haha. -
i'm against the idea of putting singapore tag, arms badge, unit patch or even collar ranks on the uniforms. i like the way as what it is now. i don't see the justification for all these new additons.

ya lor. for ppl who got the uniform currently got to change new things very troublesome oneOriginally posted by Gordonator:i'm against the idea of putting singapore tag, arms badge, unit patch or even collar ranks on the uniforms. i like the way as what it is now. i don't see the justification for all these new additons. -
Obiang?Originally posted by MobyDog:Wha... that would be ugly... like the typical Kuomingtang era uniform.. so obian .. not professional at all.

I think its the other way around.
Having the badges will improve unit pride and improve the professional image of our combat dress uniform when worn on post and off post.The Army had formation and vocational badging a long time ago, and I feel that there will be a future need for a change of camouflage too, especially if more units are geared towards urban warfare and peacekeeping duties in areas which are not primarily jungle in nature.
Perhaps a second type of uniform then. -
i'm talking about no.4 here.Originally posted by chunyong:but u see the uniform can know its which dept, Navy is lite blue, Navy white...mah. -
what about those clerks, storemen, drivers, RPs, lifeguards, messboys? what will they put on their uniforms?
-
i know i have a velcro patch on coverall's my left arm to put the singapore flag.
-
I mean having small badges is ok... it just that having to much woven badges bunched together is obscene in camo fag. And size of it also matter.Originally posted by LazerLordz:Obiang?

Their respective service arms I suppose.Originally posted by Gordonator:what about those clerks, storemen, drivers, RPs, lifeguards, messboys? what will they put on their uniforms?
Lifeguards and PTI would put G6Army I suppose.
Respective GS branches..more money for the aunties at Beach Road. -
I've seen photos where uniforms have the "Singapore" tag.
The rest of it sounds just like the 1970s'. Odd - 3G army with 1G type of badges from the old days.
I remember my brother having a formation badge on his uniform in the 70's.
With the arms badge on the collar - does that mean there will be no need for a guards tag? Also, with no 21st or 25th Div logos - a general formation badge will be used instead like the old days? -
For clerks:A pen or pencilOriginally posted by Gordonator:what about those clerks, storemen, drivers, RPs, lifeguards, messboys? what will they put on their uniforms?
For drivers:pic of a LR,5 tonner
For Storemen:a trolley
For messboy:tiger beer cans

btw, this 6 Div's 1WO T K Tan very garang sia, 5 badges.Originally posted by Manager433:Picture taken from keeptouch:

The badges have to be stylised and be in proper typography and colour.I'd prefer them to be in the olive and green combination, etched and stitched to have a subdued look.Originally posted by bcoy:I've seen photos where uniforms have the "Singapore" tag.

Thing is, it would never look as nice as the ACU's typeface and colour combination..a bad feeling I have.
this is the Joint Forces badge of the US Army.The colours are subdued, instead of their original regimental colours.
