In most camps I've been to, it's silent drill with PT.
I only remember stamping my feet in PT back in BMT... and that was in Feb 2002. -
i tink we should follow the US military
they execute their drills smartly and with precision
i like that

sispec during my time requires stamping of feet...Originally posted by ^tamago^:lao jiao.. -
Imagine getting yelled at for doing the proper drill. Sheesh.
*Where's LazerLordz?* -
when i was in SISPEC (2003), the practice was to bang when wearing PT kit. than when i crossed over to OCS, the practice was not to bang (silent drill).
so u can imagine, the first day when i was in OCS, i was the only idiot who bang when in PT kit.
of cos i got F ed for it. -

It used to be stamping foot while executing a drill irregardless of any attire.
Through the Learning Organisation and Organisation Learning being introduce to the SAF few years ago, many practices has change.
Currently, most unit do not practice stamping of foot while executing a drill in PT attire and indoor environment, your warrant may not aware of such practice if he is not with the military school/insitute. That depends on the unit RSM to implement to your unit. -
the trick is to decelerate your foot enough just before it hits the floor. let the others do the real stamping la...Originally posted by wuming78:no standard practise - its up to the RSM / SSM / WSM i think.

RSM of 7SIB?Originally posted by Kuali Baba:I knew that WO was a stupid twat. -
i wonder why you have to stamp your feet during drill. Wouldn't that mess up your knees and feet if you stamp too hard for too long? also, i think it makes performing foot drill that much harder...quite unnecessarily. in the u.s. or korean army, you simply "shift" your feet together, so it's not that noticeble if your a bit early or late hehe, but if you stamp your feet one second after everyone else...ouch!Originally posted by Ristar:the trick is to decelerate your foot enough just before it hits the floor. let the others do the real stamping la...
especially for recruit training...i can easily imagine the singapore drill sergeants making recruits stamp their feet again and again till they get it right!
if i'm not mistaken, it was carried over from the British army, and I think all the Commonwealth countries (including Singapore) follow this tradition.
By means of introduction, i'm from s. korea and i've worked extensively with the u.s. army stationed here in korea during my NS. I lived in Singapore before and posted in sg forums a few times back in 2003....so it's been a while i guess
