Hard for her to accept his son death . If it is caused by accident , she can still accept it after all accidents happen. But to know that his son could have survived if he was treated quickly but didn’t and died as a result is something very difficult to get a closure.

What more he is the only son . Perhaps only Mother can understand this.

One of the reasons the US military is such a formidable force is the gun culture in their country (second amendment). Americans are used to having guns in their daily lives, you could call it a blessing or a curse. As a result their soldiers have a higher proficiency with firearms.

In sinkieland, they expect sinkies to be soldiers, yet guns are so tightly controlled. You can own one if you pass stringent requirements, but must keep it in the armory and only shoot at the range. It's an offence to bring it out or home.

If sinkees are allowed to own guns like the Americans do, there won't be a PAP government.

Sum assured of a maximum of S$150,000 will cover pre-existing medical conditions .


SINGAPORE — Free life and personal accident insurance coverage will be provided for all full-time national servicemen (NSFs) and operationally-ready national servicemen (NSmen) from next month, as part of efforts to better recognise the contributions of national servicemen.

The coverage will benefit NSFs and NSmen serving in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), Singapore Police Force (SPF) and the Singapore Civil Defence Force. Under the Core Scheme, they will receive group term life coverage of S$150,000, and group personal accident insurance coverage of the same amount for the duration of their full-time National Service (NS) and operationally-ready NS duties.

The Ministry of Defence (Mindef) and Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) will foot the premiums for the insurance coverage, the ministries said in a joint press release on Tuesday (June 21).

.Aviva is the appointed insurer for the initiative. The Core Scheme, which will cover pre-existing medical conditions, is expected to benefit more than 375,000 Mindef and MHA servicemen. Besides national servicemen, Mindef and SAF regulars and Home Team uniformed officers will also receive group term life and group personal accident insurance coverage during their period of service. Volunteers also stand to benefit.

NS volunteers, as well as volunteers from the SAF Volunteer Corps, SPF Voluntary Special Constabulary, and Civil Defence Auxiliary Unit, will enjoy similar insurance coverage in the course of their official duties. In addition, a Voluntary Scheme is available to all individuals covered under the Core Scheme – should they wish to insure themselves outside the stipulated coverage periods or their dependants.

Mindef and SAF public officers, MHA civilian employees, as well as Defence Science and Technology Agency staff may also buy coverage for themselves and their dependants under this scheme. It comes at “competitive premiums” and provides coverage of up to S$1 million for group term life insurance, and up to S$600,000 for group personal accident insurance.

Under the Voluntary Scheme, individuals aged 65 and below will pay a monthly premium of S$5.10 for every additional S$100,000 of group term life insurance coverage and S$100,000 of group personal accident insurance coverage. MHA personnel may sign up for the Voluntary Scheme from July 1, while those at Mindef can do so from Oct 1.

The provision of life and personal accident insurance coverage for national servicemen is one of 30 recommendations put forward by the Committee to Strengthen National Service, which has the task of looking into ways to improve the NS system and raise public support for it. Servicemen who are current policy-holders under each ministry’s existing insurance scheme will have their existing coverage ported over to the Voluntary Scheme.

Currently, NSFs in the SAF, for example, are covered automatically for a sum of S$100,000, unless they opt out, under the SAF Group Term Life Insurance Scheme – for which a S$12.80 premium is deducted from their monthly allowance. They can choose to pay higher premiums for greater coverage.

National servicemen TODAY spoke to welcomed the free coverage. A 21-year-old NSF serving in the SAF, who wanted to be known only as Sherman, said many NSFs struggled with their allowance, and those hard-pressed for money would no longer have to apply for other insurance schemes. “With this free insurance, I think it will really help ease the financial (burden),” he said.

Others said the scheme gave them greater assurance, should anything untoward befall them. Whether they opt for increased coverage under the Voluntary Scheme hinges on the particulars of the scheme, such as the cost of premiums, the servicemen said. Mr Dalton Wong, 22, an SPF NSF, said: “A higher coverage would mean a higher insured amount for my dependant and I think (that) is very important.”

U mean like Patrick Tan?
All levels of white horses are treated even more harshly to ensure that there is no appearance of favoritism.

While the peasant stock are allowed to idle their time away as Privates or LCPs, white horses are arrowed to take on heavy responsibilities which can be very stressful and can even cause cancer.

It is not the government's fault that her son is weak. It's all in the genes that are passed down from the parents.

They did not demand the wrongdoers to be named. I gauge that the family appears to be pacified.

avlb on m60a1 chassis lah. that’s why i hinted 2-man crew. don’t have to state the obvious as only a select few were trained on it (it’s now obsolete). plus the old cev chassis is also based on m60 chassis. i didn’t specifically refer to m60a1 the mbt, but the chassis. like that also catch no bola? goondu lah you.

If u are really from this unit, then you are not a tankee. U are a combat engineer. Tankees are exclusively with the Armour or AI wing. In all my years in armour, no want I know there refers to a crew of the AVLB and the CEV as tankees. And the CEV has its own designation known as M728. The designation M60A1 refers specifically to the tank. I can't believe u are supposedly combat engineers and still can't refer to your vehicle as the AVLB or the M728 CEV. Fucking idiot.

and the amx-13 is not really a tank. it's a death trap for boy scouts. you guys should be called trappees or coffin drivers. both the avlb and cev are truly built with tank chassis, and they are meant for men not boys. the v12 engine alone can outweigh the chassis of the coffin. you still fucking around on fb?
