what is call sign? why outfield must call sign or whatever?Originally posted by Herzog_Zwei:Depends, if I am wearing civilian wear and the officer is my friend, I can call him by name. Ditto if vice versa.
If in unit mess, no ranks between friends.
While on parade or on duty, mind the ranks please.
While on the field, kindly stick to call signs.

You reminded me of Japanese Secondary School kids When they stopped greeting teachers or call teachers by their names.The become big-fark oreddy!Originally posted by ah-soh:During my time in Tekong, when I saw officers, be it 2LT or MAJ or whatever, as a recruit, I will greet and alute to them.
Once I came out from Tekong, when I saw officers whom i dunno inside the camp, I don't even greet them, let alone salute.
If there are situations in which I have to talk to the officers, I will 'greet' him 'sir' as a courtesy gesture.
