no need lah.....SAF work year is thru april so by the next work year he is officially retired.............
anyway since he is not combat fit he can ken during ICT.....what do you want a 40 year old man running in the field........high risk...
Officers are very important people in the SAF. They can run, fly and jump. I think should extend to 65 years or more.
Useless and brainless people like us (CPL and below) footman I think 30 years old or less should expire already. No bother to call us back and waste tax payer money.
I recieved 4 call-ups (all 1 day or less) within less than 1 yr of my ORD ... I think footman nowadays cheap for a weekend hire leh ...

Huh? ORD??
There is a limit to call-up , check the Reservist Handbook. You can reject or defer if they called you too often.
It is true. We have a limit funding, to organise reservist training and the men's salaries are included in the budget.
I remember my unit got complaint from HQ for the most expensive reservist unit to maintain/call back. LOL

As an NSman, you may be called up for NS activities for not more than 4 hours during the first 6 months after you completed full-time NS. Every NS work year, you may be called up to a maximum of 40 days of Operationally Ready National Service (NS).

Well, this is the SAF phenomenon. Super low rank in SAF. ORD as private. Reservist as private, LCP, CPL. but Rich fellow. Smart people knows how to work properly. Do the necessary to achieve the best outcome. BY ALL MEANS. hehehe

my friend...poor chap...and i orded 1 week after him...but didn't get call up...
If it was just a one day event, are we able to skip the SAF100 n go for lessons? I am it sounds stupids, but it does sound abit threatening to our studies ...
