I was from the 168th intake and watching this made me reminisce my days as a trainee. More specifically, I really miss the brotherhood and the bond cultivated with my NS41 squad mates, field instructor (FI), course manager (CM) and company commander (Coy Comm). We still keep in touch after all these years (enlisted in 2017). The main highlight of my stint was my squad being chosen to be the “demonstration squad” for the incoming 169th intake where we executed and displayed complex foot drills for friends and families. Furthermore, my experiences as a PNSF definitely made me a more matured person and inculcated important values and transferable social skills that I can apply to every aspect of my life upon ORD-ing. To all serving PNSFs, all the best. My advice is to do your best since it’s only 2 years and trust me, it will pass in a flash. Also, do remember to have fun in the process, NS can be an enjoyable experience.

Ahhh good old memories! 171 intake here. I have the unwanted "honour" of being the first trainee from my fit intake to be shouted at by my Coy Comm, right after the families left and we were in the Harmony Hall, good times even though it was only back in 2018.
Wish SPF could do video series like MINDEF's Every Singaporean Son. Those who served in SAF or SCDF would be interested to know how their SPF trainee peers live through their routines at the academy.
During my enlistment day I was posted to Kranji camp 3 on 22nd February 2011 as the SAF storeman and my platoon sergeant and platoon commander never scold me and the other recruits so harsh, so that is why the camp said cannot bring camera phone and we have rules to follow. I also do CPR test and storeman course and I miss my BMT day. So I was posted to Nee soon camp as soldiers and get to know each other as well. I was happy to have a better life and make things a better way and help one another and sweat like hell. So I learn something new and get new soldiers to learn things inside the store, like doing IDO, draw newspaper, keep the place clean and help to return keys. I also polish my boots and make it shine and I got promoted to Private and lastly I was promote to Lance corporal in SAF. One fine day I got ORD clearance and that time I got dental FFI and blood donation, lastly I also got to get my medical FFI and get my haircut. That time I was not feeling well and I manage to survive and miss my family all time and when I left camp and I did not want to go back my old time and reach the new journey and I finally ORD on 21st February 2013 and things change for the matter of time.
132nd. Was an interesting experience. Posted as an OFI at HTA for the rest of my NS enlistment. I have very fond memories of that place, my so called home for that 1yr++. And looks like FI Majid is still there! I will always remember his unlimited Bur-pees with 15kg Bagpack.
175 represent! He was in charge of NDP Row A contingent which I was part of before 3 years ago. Really missed the legendary FI Majid to bits now! Very strict yet most caring FI IMO
SPF changed to the Glock 19 a couple of years ago but it looks like the NS people still get the Taurus 85. SPF, please correct me if I'm wrong. Again, great series!
@@fire_phoenix8083 you bet. If you watch their channel you should see patrol officers with the Glocks, but it appears that they aren't issued with a spare magazine. If so, this needs to be fixed.
We phased in glocks 2 years ago at division level. From what I know as I left quite a while back, more frontline regulars are being gradually trained to carry glocks while perhaps PNSFs (or SCs) will continue on revolvers in the meanwhile. My guess is theres concern over possibility of some NSFs might accidentally lose gun parts such as magazines since it can be easily stripped down whereas revolver is much simpler to operate and does not need field stripping, thereby requiring a narrower learning curve. Another reason is because rounds need to be accounted for when firing if a gravely serious incident warrants the usage of a firearm. For regulars they would have to be taken into greater accountability as it is their career since they have to renew their qualification every FY unlike SCs that only have limited operational experience. Lastly, each regular GRF officer does carry spare magazines in addition to one inserted into their pistol. Hopefully that clarifies! @Gunny Daddybeagle
@@skywaterflow thank you for the response! But, what does GRF stand for, and do you know why the Force didn't go with the CZ P-07 that they were also trying out in the field?
if any national servivce police officer never report back to camp, their detention barrack is what, army, air force and navy are saf detention barrack and scdf are scdf detention barrack, then police is what detention barrack. where is the police BMT camp at? In my army camp few of my friends are AWOL king and kena sent to SAF detention barrack. But police is what detention barrack if any NS Police did not report to camp and try to AWOL
For HT AWOLees (regardless of SPF and SCDF), they are held jointly at detention barracks located at SCDF basic training grounds, if I'm not wrong? sorry I was from HTA
Nah far from it anything happens we will still need them. Just because Gen Z has better training safety does not mean that they are incapable of getting things done after all. @Joe Raymond

intake 61st, 1990 from thomson road police academy. 10 weeks for the basic training, everything was old school
i was from 130th intake.. those days were the memories..
I like the series so far! Keep it up!
The revolver is actuly nice to shoot I shot it in NPCC the recoil ain't that much but it's loud
The revolver you shot in NPCC was .22 LR or .38 SPL, or .38 Spl +P? Also any idea what model was the revolver if it uses .22?
Sec school cadets shoot .22, and .38 is for teacher officers, honorary officers and cadet inspectors
