NDU BDC (Basic Diving Course) is 17 days residential with weekend short book out, of which 3 days is "orientation" where if you are deemed unsuitable or can't make it, u'll be dismissed from the course.Originally posted by tyco_mun:RIGHT! I NSF. But i noticed a couple of Sgts (also NSF) wearing the badge. I never bothered to ask them, cos they are F*%&(#$.
No one knows how long the diver course is? -

Normally, only servicemen by vocation requirement attend the Basic/Advance Diver Course such as SOF, CDO, NDU and EOD. As for regular servicemen in the Army who attend the Basic Diver Course, it only narrow for officers who need to clear his confident course but due to certain reasons, they are unable to go for either Ranger, Jungle Confidence or Basic Airborne...

Ok ok....i thought there are 2 types of diver's badges. One is the super xiong NDU one, and the other is a simple normal Diver Badge. Wat's the diff between them anyways? And NCC can take but NSF cannot? That's just weird......

It's called early recruitment drive.

dear friend,Originally posted by alwaysdisturbed:is it true u can put it on if u r a certified (nt by the army) rescue diver?
sorry you cant
even if you r a dive master, diver instructor or etc... you still cant.
Naval Diver badges are only meant for any SAF personnal whom ve completed the class 1 and class 2 diver course. pls remember this, we are toking about combat diver so.... without undergoing any proper tranning from the unit, you are not allow to convert those cert to diver badge.
cheers -
the left side one is for any SAF personnal who wish to attend the basic diving cource in NDU, pls remember, these couse will last from 17- 21 days... and basically, its like those normal commercial diving course, not really have physical training. most of the time, alot of official will tend to go for this course. as i think its shorter and its just like a CONFIDENT course to them.Originally posted by Gordonator:

just like the army, alot of official or regular will attend the airborne course.
on the right, its the naval professional diver badge. its mainly for diver who have gone through the 36 weeks of diver training. this will include the hell week as well. therefor, only diver with this badges have gone through the class 1 and 2 training and been to hell week.
on top of this, the backing will shown the states of the diver's by right, those 'alive' or still active diver will have a blue colour backing, i think this goes for cdo airborn badge as well

thanks to NDU for the informative write-up.
