this passing the bomb around thing is to train your guts. u ask our saf sof and commandos to do it. i think they will pee in their army pants. PLA army top officers maybe fuck up, but their foot soldiers still got my respect for being well trained and fearless. of cos their equipments all fuck up.
How I wish SIngapore is also pat of China like HK, all sinkie men can be exempted for serving NS and protected by the PLA. I am sure it will scare the shits out of our neighbour and will not suka suka threaten to cut our water supply
For goodness sake, asking NS men to perform extremely dangerous stunts is sheer stupidity on the part of military instructors and totally wrong. Think of the parents who brought the child up to see them being injured. Is this your idea of proper training?
Precisely. The key word is NS. NS = conscripts, not volunteers.
On the other hand, if you're a regular, dying during military training accidents should be part and parcel of your job's occupational hazard. After all, that's what you have signed up for, and what you're paid to do.
