National servicemen killed in line of duty over the years

1968 [Source]

First reported training death in October 1968. In that incident, Recruit Allen Tan Chong Huat, 19, was stung by hornets in the Chua Chu Kang forest. He was rushed to Taman Jurong Camp but there was no doctor on duty there ( military doctors then clocked an 8am to 5pm shift). What’s more, the garrison’s ambulance was out on another call. So Recruit Tan’s officers rushed him to the main road to flag down a passing vehicle. It took an hour to get him to hospital.

I believe that the first SAF death was before this. I recall that in January 1968, our original batch of armour officers were send to Israel for training. As well, NCOs were also send there for training on the same AMX-13. My understanding was that some of them committed suicide in Isreal due to kenna tekan by their instructors. So, it would mean that it predates your Oct. 1968 date by a few months. This was hush hush and still is today.

This was extremely lethal soil bacteria!

In 2004, 15 Singaporeans died in one outbreak alone. It had the potential to be an even bigger pandemic than bubonic plague. If it wasn't for the selfless efforts of Dr Patrick Tan, half of Singapore could have been wiped out.

Well, I hope that its as lethal as you say it is. That makes the chance of patrick tan contracting something even higher. And than he will transmit it to his father Tony, who will in turn transmit it to all the MPs, cabinet ministers, etc in his normal course of working and golfing with them. With a little luck, they will all be dead in a short time.

June 1995 - Road marshal for army half marathon was run over by a speeding Civic SIR

1994 - 4 month Bmt recruit shot his tekanning officer then turned the gun onto himself at firing range. His last words to the officer before pulling the trigger "Sir you not happy with me. I also not happy with you."

If all these intelligent and extremely talented people die, Singapore will end up being swampland again.

How ironic. When singapore reverts to being a swampland, we would most definitely need experts on soil diseases.

From the day I enlisted to the day I ROD, my cookhouse vegetables was full of sand. That's the one thing I remember about my NS life to this day. Every meal, I would eat sand.

Then a few years back I read the news we are stealing sand from Indonesia.

If I remember correctly, gedong cookhouses only commercialized in 98, 42 first as they take care brigade first then 46 later, not sure of ATC. I know cannot compare to outside but since SFI was charging on average $5.50 per head then it better has a bit of standard. It paid with taxpayer monies, so what wrong in making SFI work hard for it.

U only experience NSF cooks in bmt? I ate their craps for almost 2 years. I even help out the cookhouse(extras) for few days and after seeing what they did in the kitchen, I dun even take some of the food they prepared on the mess tray.

Some patriotic gong kias will still report for war duty... turn up super punctual at the mobilisation and equipping centres.

Meanwhile, the pappies all run road already via unlisted private jets.

the patriotic gong kias will report for war duty with their maid carrying their fullpack and rifle. Maid board warplane with them and act as shield when grounded hehe
