Thinking of SCDF i suddenly recall once there a SCDF open house got 1 part i dunno call what but is like a square metal tube , inside got rubble and dark , have to crawl through the whole tunnel.
I tried that on open house i feel dam unconfortable , as in , i afraid , and now thinking of the tunnel , i got a little phobia
Dark is still alright for me , but those dark until cannot see finger too long i cannot take it , and im very afraid of tight space , like a tunnel , i crawl in i will start paniking , doing anything like struggle , screaming
i wonder how i manage to crawl out from that that time

Don't worry to much lah, SCDF is really shiok to be in & you get to learn some useful skills that you can put into good use even after you ORD

what do they call BMT in SCDF ?
-
nvm , it call BRT , basic rescue trainingOriginally posted by Unidentified:what do they call BMT in SCDF ? -
open air right? that's to train firefighters how to move around in enclosed area with our BA set and fire gear. it can get very claustrophobic. you need to be relaxed and focused to get through it.Originally posted by Unidentified:Thinking of SCDF i suddenly recall once there a SCDF open house got 1 part i dunno call what but is like a square metal tube , inside got rubble and dark , have to crawl through the whole tunnel.

yup! agreedOriginally posted by SMRT Buses:Don't worry to much lah, SCDF is really shiok to be in & you get to learn some useful skills that you can put into good use even after you ORD -
There are 2 phases, PTP (Physical Training Phase) & BRT (Basic Rescue Training) whereby in BRT you'll get to learn the basics of rescue techniques as welll as the basic CPR & first aid skillsOriginally posted by Unidentified:nvm , it call BRT , basic rescue training -
can someone give me some crash course on what will happen in SCDF both BRT and deployment
heard that SCDF also got issue rifle right ? -
I'm not sure what you mean by deployment but during the BRT stage, as mentioned earlier, you'll learn some of the basic rescue techniques as well as basic first aid as well as CPR...might have some night lessons too...Originally posted by Unidentified:can someone give me some crash course on what will happen in SCDF both BRT and deployment

And since when did SCDF got issue rifle

Depends on whether you in PTP stage or fit/fat squad.Originally posted by Unidentified:can someone give me some crash course on what will happen in SCDF both BRT and deployment

after PTP stage, you're either in BRT or Fight Fighter or ERS.
after BRT, you will either go into SRB, Clerk, Store, Instructor, Medic.. etc.
in BRT, you learn basic casualty transportation, learn some rescue equipment, learn how to use fire extinguisher. and you'll be preparing for foot drill competition. Bravo company seldom win, always Alpha. Charlie got win some though. LOL.
Oh, also got the route march.
for ERS, I posted in the other post, I'll just repeat it here:
there will be a few major milestones to overcome.
Presentation Skill - just presenting any topic u want for 20 mins. I taught the class how to play a guitar.
Footdrill Commands - how to give basic footdrill commands. turn left, turn right, turn back, turn front, U-turn, march here, march there..
IPPT - minimum Silver (I so proud to have attained it, because I never passed IPPT b4)
SOC - A pass of completing it in 09:30 mins.
BAPT - Doing some gym exercises (pulling weights, brisk walking, cycling at a certain speed, and endless ladder) while wearing the full fire fighting gear , and the BA set (got time limit to wear everything, or else fail). then going through a rat maze filled with traps in the darkness and smoke, to find your way out before your air tank whistle blow (which means u left 10 mins of air). So even if you're totally tired, you have to force yourself to control your breathing, so you won't consume too much air.
Final Exercise - You have to take on the role of either first Sect Comm, Intelligence(I forgot the proper term for it) or DO, and use whatever you learn to lead your 40 fire fighters to fight fires in different scenarios. There's oil tank fire (need alot of brain power and planning, calculate wind direction etc), ship fire fighting, 2 room fire, 3 room fire, underground rescue mission, ktv fire, flashover, Chemical Agent incidents, Mass casualty, Suicide, Flashover.
the skills you'll pick up are:
how to carry 3 lengths of hoses, how to lay hoses, how to recover hoses, how to operate hydrants, how to set up BA, how to use the hose sling, how to operate rescue equipments, how to transport casualties, CPR, how to bandage wounds, how to use medical equipments, how to set up ladders, how to operate the pump and primer, and other vehicles, impulse gun., long layon, rappelling. etc.
Basic Task Manual (BTM): various drills, you'll hear S1W3 alot.
How to tackle Flashover fire (the most exciting experience), the fire is 1000 degrees.
Very exciting I tell you.
We will dance where the devil lives...
Fire fighters go through the same thing, but they train for 3 mths, while ERS train for 6 mths.
I don't know about medics though, I know they got learn infusion and stuff, cpr, ambulance stuff. -
o level qualified for ERS. if not is go fire fighter, but more impt no criminal record rightOriginally posted by Unidentified:D7 for math consider fail hor
my edu level currently O lvl exclude math then 5 subject

Don't play play hor. We appeared in newspaper, you know
My platoon ok! I taught them everything they knew, and they nv disappointed me
i feel like a proud parent -
well i not intrested in rescue or fire fighting
im more toward paramedic -
hmm paramedics are regulars. around 2 years of training? forgotOriginally posted by Unidentified:well i not intrested in rescue or fire fighting
im more toward paramedic
you can only be medic. its a great vocation. lots of action, lots of blood. it takes nerves of steel to calmly access the situation. and sometimes the casualty dies on you.. its a really respectable vocation!
-
Be a medic first then when you follow the paramedics on call, you'll get to learn from there as I know some medics who wants to sign on after their ORD as a paramedic but being a paramedics has its disadvantages tooOriginally posted by Unidentified:well i not intrested in rescue or fire fighting
