What is the single most siong exp you've ever had in NS?
-
For me, it would be the coy training during Ex Lancer. First day morning, debus at a foot of a mountain where there is sort of a small village, then proceed to climb up and down those bloody hills until you reached the sungei batu ah poi where you do river crossing. Suay suay after river crossing where the coy is deployed to stay for the night, rain came down just before sunset. Eat ration in the rain, no poncho and sleep through the rainy night in the mud on the ground. Second day, proceed on foot again towards objective. Reached back of the objective where we need to climb up one arga 60 - 70 degrees hill to the objective at the top and we had a couple of hours of firefight in the damn rain again. I forgot what's that hill name liao... something with the word Pasir in it i think. This hill is just behind the camp I think, because when we finished the exercise, we went back to the camp through It's back gates if I remember correctly. I didn't try Biang, but I guess Biang must be the shackest of them all...
I did not remember the details of the exercise liao, maybe it's 3 days coz' it's too long ago, but that's all I can recall now. Ex Cicada was not that bad after this crap. Please share your experiences everyone. This is not to compare who is the siongest, but to share your experiences...

The Recce Training before we turned fully operational back in unit. Those in Recce should know... those fast marches... Power PT... 72 click island-wide Topo in FBO with timing.
Comparatively, I would rather go Unit exercise than going thru the trg again. The power PT and the island-wide topo is really killer. Almost by the end of the topo... everyone of us had our tongue sticking out and started dragging our feet.
That was also the time when we reached our peak in terms of fitness. -

Well.... EX. Lancer wasn't that siong for most of us in my unit but it was the 32 click route march at pasir laba that shagged us out where you just want to lay there til ORD after it. The load was 6 x 1.5L bottles for my platoon(PC's idea). In the day we went for some ridgeline fighting then 2359 of the same day the route march commences. Oh ya.... At some point i was carrying my section mates' weapons law and saw(for almost 8km, that ingrate!) At one point, where we were making a turn, i just have this feeling my PC will go straight. Indeed, he was walking with his eyes closed, i pulled him by his fieldpack. If not i wonder where he might end up.
(No offence, i respect him alot though we are of same age.)
Quite out of point har?
Personally, i think after slacking for some time, going for an exercise can really kill you. -
i was walking with eyes half closed during my sispec 32km too. hahaha.. someone walked into the drain too. haaha... i understand.....
