I'm glad things have changed since 30yrs ago. As a father of a son thats about to enlist in a few years time - i'm glad to see that the recruits are now treated as human beings
@@Aaron-ry4zh This show was filming an encik coy, so they'll be very chill with the recruits if my experience in 2018 is anything to go by. However enciks will tekan the NSF sergeants a lot
In front of camera of course will look nice, after the cameras are offed, the specs and all will be cursing here and there especially during high key week.
Not gonna lie, I think everyone has different experiences. I was in Taurus in 2019, PTP batch, and the Sergeants in this video were a lot like the ones I had. They were reasonable and they took the time to train us without the constant yelling. I feel like instead of the sergeants yelling at us, they decided to approach us in a friendly manner which differentiated us from the other sections and that made our section make sure that we were always on our best performance to prove our sergeants' leniency. Sometimes, it's in the approach. There was the usual yelling but it was reserved for scenarios where it was needed. Safe to say, our section ended us being the most disciplined and rarely got into trouble. It's all about trust. The sergeants trusted us and we trusted them.
3WO Uthaya was my sec com when I was in SCS (Sergeant’s school) in 2013 haha, back then he was a MSG but good to see he’s still training recruits/cadets
During my times, whenever we spotted the sgt at the door of our bunk, we have to shout "room" and stop whatever thing we are doing and quickly stand in attention. If not alert enough, will get pump.Things seem to be pretty heartwarming now haha
Miss the 2.4km route in Tekong. The sneak 120% after lights out. The commanders raiding bunk for late night phone users. The fear of Platoon Sgts. 'take your time take your time, nevermind, i got all day! Your life here is mine also, u want tough no problem we can help u toughen up one! SEMULA!'

Absolute nostalgia. I miss these sergeants and enciks dearly. I wanna ORD but I wouldn't mind turning back the clock and going through BMT with Dragon COY again. ~ Dragon COY, 01/21
Wah the nostalgia is hitting hard. NS was the life, can be carefree, while trying to make sense of military life. Was a long two years, but miss those times dearly.
nowadays SAF soldiers more good life than those during the early days, now IPPT only 3 stations rather than 5, also no more super siong bayonet fighting training
@@PaganMin-1966 Wow, no more bayonet fighting and only 3 stations! Times have changed, Im guessing the higher up's (those always in a command post or office) must believe that you will never need a bayonet. Can the rifle used now take a bayonet? Just out of interest what are the 3 stations.
@@PaganMin-1966 Im reading yeezeey (COMMENT BELOW) "hoping that it wasn't staged" he must have served a different SAF. Everything was always "planned" if there were vistors, the whole week before any visit was area cleaning and painting. Hahaha those were the days.
Sincerely hope this series is showing the real thing and not staged just for the cameras. I done and completed my BMT in 1993, Nee Soon camp. Infrastructure and equipment differences (and improvements) are to be expected and should be expected. It is the more "humane" attitude from the NCO now as compares to then that I really see improvements.
So polite now asking recruits to lights off..i still rem my time the PC turn everyone out to parade square for PT on the 3rd day since there are some who "dont want to sleep"..
I watched the clip in full with a teardrop by my eye. BMT was a transformative period of my life, I really loved the army and I enjoyed the training alot. My Encik was very fierce while my sergeants were strict on us, but I rather have it this way than to keng throughout my life. I miss my army days alot and it pleases me to see our young ones enjoy the training as I myself would. Cheers!
Not many guys will actually admit that their experience in NS has left a positive impact on them. For me, I did not really enjoy my time in BMT because I was physically and mentally not prepared for it. However, I really treasured my time in my posted unit after BMT. Training was very tough, we cursed under our breath at our commanders, but we always looked back and were able to laugh and reminisce about it. Friendships cultivated amongst the mates who had gone through thick and thin with me remain to this day. Did NS make me a stronger/better man? Yes I think so.
Thank you for your kind words @@arabesque2222. I think my classmate's suicide on the eve of my enlistment influenced me deeply. I still don't know what happened but all I heard was that he disliked BMT alot and had family problems too, so he went drinking and in a drunken stupor went to a top of a building and jumped down. On one hand I was stunned by this but on the other hand it made me determined to enjoy my time in the army. Thank you once again.
Remember back at 2008 my bmt enlistment at tekong raven company sch2. After parents leave the cookhouse while we walk back to our company line, 'all hell break loose' drawing of equipments start liao... kenna liao.... 🤣🤣 those were the days👍👍 great memories.

It's been more than 10 years since Every Singaporean Son season 1! Those recruits in Season 1 are probably completing their NS cycle very soon! Great to see a new season with new recruits! Will a new video be released every Mon?

@@SuccessforLifester: I was a Gunners Mate in the US Navy in the past. So, I would want the equivalent in the Singapore Navy. Either way, I would have to start in Tekong.
@@SuccessforLifester : Actually, I like that the Singapore Military has one entry point into military service. Whereas, in the US Military, each of the branches (Army/Navy/Air Force/Marines/Coast Guard/Space Force) has a basic training.

I like that every Singaporean that entered NS as an active member or a reservist went through Tekong.
on my first day on tekong, after getting off the APL (RPL), walked a mud path to charlie company... then, immediately had put on our slacks and boots to run around the company line ... dont know how to lace the boots, so was running around with boota there were falling off .. was not fit then, arms and legs trembling and shaking after that first welcome :-) hard realisation, that i have 'arrived' :-) 😊

Wow very nice, good food, nice and friendly commanders, no one shouting at your to hurry up and call u a useless cb. Tekong holiday camp for sure. Never see before the recruit so senang and not scared of their commanders, good times good times
Guys just remember this is like WWE, what you see is scripted for the camera but behind the scenes there's a lot of pain and suffering. Just enjoy the show lol.
Watch Out! A reporter asked a pro wrestler on camera if what he does is scripted. The wrestler responded by giving the reporter an open slap to the face, Will Smith Style.
Good docu. Thanks. Regards from Malaysia.
I really miss my bmt.All those yelling wakeup your bloody ideal move your bloody ass recruit counting your cockhair isit🤣🤣i will nvr forget those good memories although NS life was hell of regime💪

With new generation, time change people and mindset.
From Kestrel Coy 2013, which was one of the strictest and many bad/worst stories about K Coy back in the days.
Me J coy 2010...just beside K coy...I saw what they went thru 🤪
Yes3. All of u r lucky. Not like uncle time. ITD.INFANTRY TRAINING DEPOT. 1978. APRIL I7 7 INTAKE.(TERROR CAMP)
Beautiful!
Times have changed. We don't hear commanders shouting the familiar "You like to take your own sweet time right. Whole lot knock it down!"
And go touch the tree and come back
Sg working work permit can join in military???
This is fake guys simply because there was no vulgarities used by commanders
Everything was well arranged compared with my last enlistment 45 years ago!
1967 First Batch!!
@@thiaahmin7176 1977 batch at SAFTI. We had to do our own to collect uniforms, boots, etc putting into a alibaba bag. When we debus from 3-tonner truck, we were asked to carry the full load of our alibaba bag to run one big round of Safti parade square in civilian outfits for nothing!
Nowadays I heard SGT cannot scold mother scold father. Is it true?
Cannot alrdy. Only these no father or mother will still do that.
Last time the python will be the extra dish for staff.
It's back!
The commanders are so kind. 😀
Tekong was fun times ngl
No
Dragon Coy 04/21 batch so good
11:47 their marching is so half fuck
Auto or burst fire on sar21?! they allow that now?
im in the same batch but diff coy as dragon in this vid haha they seem to have more welfare compared to us but we get along well. one time right before PT it was CAT 1 so we went to the corridor to celebrate and could hear and see dragon celebrating too 🤓
NS seems really slack from this video, even my time as a scout in sec school was tougher(graduated in 2019) I will be enlisting in 2024 and hope to get a Low pes
@@officialreviews7 It's just BMT lmao. Dragon coy isn't representative of the whole NS experience. After POP, there are units dog life units. You enlist you'll know alr.
WGT OWADIO
@@officialreviews7 its just bmt, nowadays commanders would rather let u do saikang instead of physical punishments. its better to let someone to clear the stores for them as punishment than doing push ups. further more this is sch 1 where all the commanders are going to retire soon, they jus wan u to have fun in army
are there any people that are left-handed when using rifles? if so then what happens?
Some adaptations would be done for left handers. I used M16 so I cannot advise. For M16 left handers need to fix some kind of deflector to prevent the hot cartridges from hitting the face
So when do these recruits pick up their yoga mats?
