  assuming there is this new scheme in the army...
  
  a. u can serve the normal 2 full years or 1 yr 10 months for fitness cut
  
  b. or u can serve only 1 year 2 months, but u don't get paid a single cent of allowance for the whole duration. plus u have to remain as a private for till ord.
  
  assuming in both cases, after u ord, there is ippt, n reservist ict as per normal.
  
  so which would u choose, a or b?
  
  ok, then what about if change 1 year 2 months to 1 year? what would ur choice still be?
