That's the one I was second proud of. National Stadium concert for Jackie Chan and Anita Mui. They demanded firearms carrying bodyguards but of course, Singapore wouldn't allow their own bodyguards to carry firearms in Singapore. Six of us were chosen. I was one of them.

A man is not a beast thinking of eating and fighting for survival only. Of course men have to have connection. That builds society and society builds into country.

which means " don't rely on others " is not logic after all

It's intricately interlinked in a circle. You shoudn't rely on others but it's others that build up the society around you.

When you use the term 'chosen', you are implying that there was a selection process. I understand that the U.S Marines have one of the most grueling selection process, how about a lowly Sinkie bodyguard with no firearms?

These are the requirements for a Marine....

Preliminary requirements

Before anyone is able to be screened for Reconnaissance, those candidates must consider the prerequisites and adhere to the following:

Updated and current physical
General Technical (GT) score of 105 or higher (particularly, FORECON candidates must have a GT score of 115 or higher).
Physical Fitness Test 1st Class score
CWS-1 (1st Class) swim qualification
20/20 vision, with minimum correction allowed. Laser eye surgery is acceptable as long as 20/20 is achieved. Normal color vision (color blindness is
acceptable if able to contrast between red and green)
No page 11 entries in service record book
18-months minimum remaining on current enlistment contract upon completion of the basic reconnaissance course
Be able to obtain a "Secret" security clearance
Have completed the infantry course at the Infantry Training Battalion, School of Infantry

Selection

The first initial steps of making a Marine into a qualified Reconnaissance Marine starts at the recon selection, or screening board, regardless if it is for assignment to Radio Recon, Scout Snipers, Division Recon, or Force Recon. The screening process is used to test potential recon candidates in their combat swimming skills, physical stamina and endurance. The screening board is a 48-hour event that is held on the last Thursday of each month at either MCB Camp Pendleton or MCB Camp Lejeune; the FMF Reconnaissance and all the organic division reconnaissance assets conduct their own distinct selection process from one another. Force Recon held their screening board at Camp Horno and near Las Flores on Camp Pendleton.

If failed, the Marines are encouraged to try the screening process again later if they so desire. Any candidate may also voluntarily dropout at any time during the screening process and retake the test later. Multiple screening attempts are common before succeeding. The only uniqueness between both recon asset's indoc screening, the division recon Marines had to retake the Force Recon's indoc if they were to make the subtle change from a division-level to a force-level command, regardless of their prior excelled qualifications.

Because Marines are amphibious by nature, the candidates proceed to the pool where they perform combat water aerobics. Beginning with a 25 m (82 ft) underwater swim, the candidates also must conduct deep water rifle retrieval. Determining on which is performing the screening, the mock rifle may be either a rubber model of the service rifle ("rubber duck") or even concrete cinder blocks are sometimes used instead; which was frequented by the Force Recon's selection board on occasion. The candidates would then have to carry the concrete block to the surface and swim it to a designated spot.

Next is the 25 ft (7.6 m) tower jump with full combat gear, followed by 30-minutes of treading water. Further water combat skills are imposed also, such as the five-minute flotation with trousers and a timed 500 m (1,600 ft) swim. After the pool screening is completed, the candidates run in formation down to the red course to perform a physical fitness test. They are required to obtain a 1st Class score of 225 or higher.

The next day, the candidates run the Obstacle Course a few times. The Marines conducting the indoctrination evaluation base the candidates on their effort method of attempting the "O" Course, and not by how fast they complete it. After the "O" Course, the last event in the selection and screening board ends with the recon candidates being tasked to run with a "ruck sack" and a "rubber duck." A ruck sack is a field pack containing a 50 lb (23 kg) sand bag. They are expected to maintain a pace of four- to five-miles per hour. The Division Recon demands the candidates to run an 8 mi (13 km) concourse, the FMF Recon however demanded an additional 10 mi (16 km) "boots and utes" ruck sack run over the hills of Las Flores and down along the beach. Failure to maintain this pace results in the candidate being dropped. Once the recon Marine candidates passes all the physical and evaluation tests, they are given a psychological screening test and an interview.

If they are deemed fit to continue training, they will then be interviewed by the recon command's staff whether it be Force Recon or Division Recon; the officers are interviewed by the company commander, the enlisted Marines are interviewed by the company sergeant major and other staff non-commissioned officers. If were given permission to start their initial training to become recon Marines, they proceed to the indoctrination program.

These are the requirements for a Marine....

I was police, not marine. But even the swimming part, I surely qualify too. All males in my family have one kind or another of swimming medals or certificates. My father threw me into the Chinese Swimming Club adult pool from the springboard when I was age 3, to my mother's and the lifeguards' horror. With the tightened laws nowadays, I think he'd be charged for something like child abuse or even attempted murder. But seriously, I was very little then and he was confident of picking me up back alive no matter what. It was good training though. I've since swam rivers and seas. In case you don't know, it's legal to swim to Sentosa or Pulau Ubin and me and brothers and friends had done it before. Nothing to boast about. Some NS AWOLees could swim back to Singapore too.

I was serious when I said you should write a series of books on your life experiences. Jibes aside, it is a way for you to make an honest living, accuracy of stories aside. Even your friend Bob will be jealous.

No need to say. Your father is a crazy man. And you, like father like son.
