Types of Basic Military
Training
PES A/B1
BMT
This 9-week programme trains combat-fit recruits in the basic
military skills to prepare them for advanced vocational training.
The programme includes weapon training with the SAR 21 rifle which
will teach recruits technical handling and marksmanship skills; a
Battle Inoculation Course that simulates a real battlefield; a
Field Camp which develops basic survival skills; progressive
training to complete a 24-km route march which builds combat
fitness and endurance; and hand grenade training.
For those who fail to achieve the
NAPFA test silver award, they are required to undergo an 8-week
Physical Training Phase (PTP) prior to the PES A/B1
BMT.
PES BP
BMT
As evidence has shown that obese recruits are able to achieve
optimum fitness levels and weight loss in about 19 weeks, the new
BMT programme for recruits with Body Mass Index (BMI) scores
exceeding 27.0 will be 19 weeks. This BMT programme is designed to
help obese recruits improve their physical fitness progressively
while equipping them with basic soldiering skills and
knowledge.
PES B2
BMT
Enlistees who were PES C1 previously underwent a 7-week BMT
programme. The new 9-week PES B2 BMT programme will be conducted
for recruits who are medically fit for deployment in selected
combat and combat support vocations, such as signal operators,
combat medics and naval system operators. These recruits will be
given a new medical classification of PES B2, in place of the
existing PES C1 classification. This is to ensure that the medical
classification of our soldiers is consistent with their deployment.
The new 9-week programme will include customised physical training,
as well as basic combat training to prepare them for their combat
and combat support roles.
PES C
BMT
The 9-week BMT programme will be conducted for PES C recruits. This
programme will include light physical training and vocational
training to prepare them for combat service support vocations, such
as service medic, and those related to logistics and
administration.
PES E
BMT
The 4-week BMT programme will be conducted for PES E recruits. This
programme will focus on, vocational training as well as National
Education, SAF core values, regimentation and discipline to prepare
recruits for combat service support vocations.

Hello EAC, I have a inquiry about my injury on my mri diagnosis and would like to ask if I'm qualified for a downpes.
Conclusion:
Partial sacralisation of L5 vertebra
Degenerate l4-5 disc with posterior annular tear and disc bulge causing mild left lateral recess and exit foraminal narrowing
Further action or early intervention is required.
Is a specialist letter required for this kind of diagnosis or a mri report is sufficient for this?
It's within PES C to E range.

Hello,
What PES will be assigned to high myopia (800+) and/or myopia only (some

Is it PES B1, B2, C or E range?
Can a person

Hi eac,
I have been having hearing pain due to loud noises from shouting and noise since my enlistment however my previous sgh specialist was not able to rule out any problem and rule no hearing loss. And is still the pain is still present for several days.
With a new appointment with MMI, is there anything I can note to make my specialist to acknowledge my issue seriously that it will affect my pes status, as I am very worried about having eventual hearing loss. I am currently b1l1
Will an eventual excuse rifle cause me to pes down?
