It's funny because a recruit who goes the OCS might think that one day their BMT sgts will have to salute them, but they don't realise that by the time they're commissioned as a 2LT their sgts will already have reached a higher rank: CIV.
To correct you a bit, it's technically true that commissioned officers are higher ranked than warrant officers. However, for junior commissioned officers from 2LT to maybe CPT, they can't actually just "knock" an encik down like that. This is actually an unspoken military rule all over the world.
I learnt unarmed combat during my unit days in the late 80s. The unarmed combat instructors were all PTIs who were mostly corporals armed with UC black belt and they knocked everyone down - including Encik and officers - to do knuckles push up. 🤣 NB: In the 80s, corporal was the lowest specialist rank.
That time I Recruit and got appointed as Bunk IC for 2 weeks as 3SG, then Private and 2SG and LCP and 1SG to go up and wake all the SOL soldiers all by myself.
Actually when you are in command ranks, you don't just knock another commander down like that. Knock it down only happen during course. And trainers can knock trainees down regardless of rank. There was once a fresh 2LT knock all the specs down (3SG to 1SG) and he got called in to office by the OC. And good luck he made common enemies after that.
When I was in Civil Defence, they had various ranks and even Gurkhas attending EMT training. Ranks from PTE to 3SGT. That batch got knocked down by the EMT trainers. I can't remember if it was by the warrants or by NSF Sgts but I can see how even regular SGTs can be knocked down for making critical mistakes during training.
@@Ghakimx yup as you said, they were on "course" - the trainers will be of highest authority regardless the trainees' rank. When you are in operational unit every commanders are your left right friends/peers to help you along. The case i quoted above is a real example (ops unit), and the fresh OCS-ed post in NSF LT knock down all specs including experienced regulars infront of the entire company. OC would not have stepped in if he think it was ok.
As they say in the SAF, don't mess with the regulars even if you are a 2LT. Depending how foolish the NSF officer wants to be, the kopi talk could go from the OC to CO to Chief XXX officers to Chiefs of the Service to finally the CDF... Only one NSF in the whole history of SAF managed to get away relatively unscathed after a furious letter to all of the above mentioned senior leadership....
Unlike other major military countries, being in the military here is no pride and rarely get respect from the general population. In fact there are many who laugh at people who "signed on". And this is true even if you are a senior ranked officers. You can wear your crab or star in public and no one will give u a F at all. For Americans this is very different from your country where soldiers are held in high esteem. Its just a mentality thing cuz the government here forces youth to go for 2.5 years (at least during my time) service and most dislike it. And our generals here are garbage, many of them screw up once they retire to civil service and got 0 war experience anyway. If real war break out first to run will be them.
Hardly anyone wants to apply for a job in the armed forces at BMT when they have other plans, to get back their freedom once they ORD and the vast majority are only interested in the normal path.
Nowadays rank change until I blur in 80 to millennium rec ,pte, and rare pte first class lcp ,corporal 3sg 2sg 1st sg ,staff sg master sg 2ndwarrant 1st warrant,master warrant, senior warrant. Nowadays first class pte sure have and come out out a first class coporal
Well, last I heard that supply cadets go through training and the supply and transport school, next, they did their on job training in their unit for 4 months, then they went to school of logistics and passed out as a 3SG. My friend told me about this as she went through it.
They are called Quartermaster. 1 will usually be tagged to per unit/school to facilitate logistics matters. Although they hold the rank of 3SG, they don't have anyone under their command.

True man
unless they end up in the same reservist / ICT. then might get the chance to get saluted and make them knock it down.
The octs dont even have that high chances of going bmt as well
Not in my batch...I have a PC from another platoon who was a REC under 1 of his 3SG...
That must be why all the very high rank CIV in disaster movies can command all the 2LT
The transition from Cap to Maj is quite amusing as you go from being the biggest of the small fks to the smallest of the big fks.
Bro, you forgot that after the 3-stars, there is one more rank - SMRT CEO
and dont forget the biggest rank of all, the Pink IC
Knowledge is knowing a 2LT can knock any encik down. Wisdom is knowing never to do that.

Hmm icic. Thanks for the correction!
They say chiefs run the navy for example. They aren’t cos, but they’ve been there and done that, so aside from formalities, chiefs run the navy.
@@thegohmedian At 1:24 expected to be called encik?
@@thegohmedianI mean, does a 2LT occifer have the balls to order a SWO to knock it down?
Never been seen footage

Too bad CIV rank doesn't protect you from reservist

Those chocolate bars look delicious. Hope Encik won't bite them

@@hawaiianpizza7 Fresh LTs just freaking power tripping. They might outrank the Encik, but the they'll be answerable to their OC.
As a BG, you still do get arrowed.
Should talk about the MEs too
Highest rank is Mummy…
3:23 I agree, however, it can’t save you from being reservist.
Came here from Kaizer hahaha
Your video is great as well, subscribed!
The highest rank in SG is Prime Minister, HAHA.
Not wrong
😂 I agree with the last rank 3:21
Next greater rank than civilian is senior citizen

Even youtube doesn't see the 4th skill tree. ouch
Could you do one about appointments in the army?
This is beautiful.
No matter the military or the service branch...
....the jokes are a common thread.
Fantastic.

That one guy being the son of the then most powerful man in the country lol
@@RWBYSanctum Special power leh...

And reservist also can promote to first sg or warrant offficer
There is so much protection with the ranks that your girlfriend will never get pregnant
Where is SMRT CEO and MP?😊

In Indonesia, a 1 star General is well respected like a minister by the public
where is SMRT CEO?

Other people.

"then you have the highest rank in Singapore" Viewers: Its COMMANDER" "its civilian" viewers:😭😭😭😵😵😵😡😡
General - Cabinet minister.
Always ask mom to complain civilian rank outranks everything ;D
Which path shall you take?
Civilian, I prefer to take my canings per court order not at the whim of NCOs
Hardly anyone wants to apply for a job in the armed forces at BMT when they have other plans, to get back their freedom once they ORD and the vast majority are only interested in the normal path.
To correct you a bit at 00:39 CFC is First Corporal (1CPL) to avoid confusing anyone and to make acknowledgement of the additional dome.
civilian security man, sleep why not after ns
The problem n sweet thing is we are not explained all these info during our training times..
You forgot SMRT CEO.
But so sad. We donot have 4 stars full general.

SAF - never fought a war before. No soldiers in SAF regardless of rank. You can only be called a soldier if you have fought a war. Thank you!
Honestly, who cares about ranking nowadays. It's MONEY TALKS, ok
