  Hi guys, any of you can advise me,

  I'm posted to SPF for my NS. But i don wish to serve SPF for NS.

  Could I sign on ARMY now so that i can change from SPF to SAF? 

  Or Must I do it before my posting was done ?

   

  Thanks

  you have got to lan lan suck thumb...
  
  this is not your grandfather's army...
  
  just think. if don't like/ don't want can change, everyone else will be asking for the same thing. they don't like too many administrative paperwork...

   

  anyway, this is the most naive and stupid thinking that in order just to be in the army instead of police, you need to go sign on 5 years of your life to be a regular instead of just do 2 years of full-time NS.

  NS is just serve and f off...
  
  unless you are some top university scholarship scholar, if not, do you think they even care to give you any attention?
