I think your 'time' was quite long ago? For PTP field camp is bout like week 5-7, as for enhanced will be usually after the 4th week... Haven't heard of first book out come back go field camp...

Last time it was 3 weeks with 1 weekend where your parents can visit you. The visit is now cancelled and confinement reduced to 2 weeks instead due to the shorter NS time

All such things are issued now so noone needs to buy anything much except maybe additional camo cream, powder etc

correct, the "parents' visit day" is cancelled long ago. it was during the time when "army daze" the local army movie was 1st shown in cinemas that time.
waste of money, labour for the wayang-ing...
field camp should be 5 week or so.
because after confinement week gotta go range etc..
then one more week for IFC first..
then followed by field camp then SIT test.
then last preparation for route march and pop.
pes a/b/c all 1st 2 weeks confinement confirmed.
