A little clarification was simply needed for the benfit of those who don't know you.
At this point in time, there's very little you could do that would fall beneath my expectations of you, so I wouldn't be too concerned about disappointing me.

That day when I met this NSF NDU guy. I am quite surprised to know that they are still treated like shit after they have completed their vocational training. I was totally stunned.
Crazy, even Armour seems to be a better choice than CDO or NDU. Be a man, do the right thing.

This is a totally different feeling from what I have when I ord. I acutally felt gulity leaving my boss alone. And even volunteer to go back to help while clearing my leave. I actually spend alot of time beyond office hours to ensure my passing over is smooth. I actually went back to camp during open house in the following few years. I am also feel quite happy that things that I have made and do, is still present and valid after 7 years since I ORD!!!??

As long as you do well in CDO, you would stand a chance of going to OCS to be trained as a Commando Officer, but it is still best to be a man.
Originally posted by limywv:heard that once you enter CDO, it's tough to get into OCS. True?
The reason why some people think so, is because all those entered CDO BMT are supposingly the best of all the recruits.
Hence, for you to enter OCS, you must be the "best among the best".
I prefer 8 to 5. At night I can do something else. Sat and Sun something else, no duties.

Today, I just met a guy from RJ getting into NDU this coming Mar. (I dont like smart guy) I was laughing in my heart. He think that NDU is good, elite of SAF.
I answer, "Good, you must be very fit to get into NDU. A special breed people FOR the SAF!"
Wish him well and luck. LOL
Academic smart but not street smart.

Perhaps he is one of those prideful or "garang" guys, then it shouldn't be too much of an issue with him.
