You been smoking weed again ?
None of our past or present day soldiers / Generals saw action in a real war
Winston Choo was a medic about 40km away from the frontline , no count also.
How can we be the mightiest army in the region when these guniangs / mama boys got no blood in their hands o_O

They fed us pig swill back in the day. These days, sinkie soldiers are a pampered lot, led by pampered paper generals who report to an out-of-touch piece of shit minister.

Americans in vietnam war had steaks and beers.

 

[Sideswipe]

because of the expensive military equipments, Sinkies army is considered a mighty army in Asean on paper.

At the cook house, I had margarine that stacked up like a scene out of "the close encounters.." bread that is so tough , that you drop one it bounced or you can 'slap leather' with them. Butter in trays, that is fast becoming randy & some days you get kway teow soup, with the kway teow 'swimming on top in trunks & bikinis" or the fried bee hoons that are as chewy as dried grasses with choy sum that is older than the 100 years old grandma with added proteins like caterpillars & fine sands for added vitamins & supplements for digestions. Coffee & Tea so weak that, you don't want to know what is taste like...it is beyond human consumption...you fed all those to a dog...it is inhumane.

Those paper generals never tasted cuisine like we had in our days..how could they fight an war or run a country?

During my time the Instructors and officers ate the same fare except we can eat ours buffet style and not conveyor belt like the men. So many opt to pay their own and eat at canteen.
Exception were the senior officers like CO or MO where they can order the cooks to whip up anything and even send the food to their office.
You can also get the same treatment if you’re on good terms with the CQ or cook sergeants.
The cookhouse food now is much better and no one eat at canteen anymore.
But then again the outsource of the food was done mainly to give business and benefit to pap crony firms

very common in us navy on ships and subs. yes, subs. when surfacing in friendly waters for battery recharging in diesel powered attack subs during the vietnam war era.

I recall that some NS men were grateful for NS to be given meals. I had a chap in my platoon who was so happy to have fish in his meals. He told me that fish was never eaten in their home. He did not tell why but I suspected that his mum was lazy to clean and prepare fish.

In those days, the canteens were welcome addition.

There were people back then that could not afford fish, not only that, pork or even chicken ( unless those living in countryside) for they live in the city & the suburbs. When they do have the money, they will buy the cheapest fish , you can find, the kuning, if I am not wrong & buy at the latest time, before the wet market closes, where one can get more for less. Kuning these days, is not cheap anymore.

To have a chicken, only certain religious days, birthdays & Lunar New Year, pork is a luxury. We eat & live , within our means back then, working hard, hoping to cross the line over poverty to live a better days.

Is it the same today?, we have crossed the poverty lines here, many can afford, eating over rated food, rather expensive from food stalls like "Wok Hei" or the extremely hyped & very expensive "crave", a simple nasi lemak meal.

The point is, we can afford much more these days & many have CPF balances that can be mounted on a wall to be displayed but cash in the pockets , we are poor & living beyond our means.

Agree bro. In those days, I remember Chicken was a treat. We would get all excited when it became known that chicken was going to ordered.

I can relate. Don't forget the mandatory ingredient rubber bands, included in almost every meal of fried bee hoon or noodles. The quality and cleanliness of each meal depended on how happy the cook-house sergeant was that day. And the metal trays we ate on were never really clean, always oily and carried a degree of odor from the food the previous guy are. We were tough, we ate the shit they gave us. The lucky ones had the canteen located near their company line.

I can relate to the metal trays & you have reminded me of the oily smell it emits, we all ate in faith. If you compare the 'privilege' we had back then, with those food & living , training conditions back then to today, we could fight any war. Don't think those paper generals nor those, who now ate in mess halls, with different menus etc...today..could even ever quell a small riots like the recent one at Little India.

I ate only at the Malay Cookhouse after recruit days, it has better food & cleaner than the Chinese one & at the canteen , when pay was in & at the cookhouse, when the miserable pay we got ran out.

Too bad, all u clowns were not in Armour. Armour food was excellent. Because of the small number of men in a SAR, food was always cooked in smaller batches. Officers and NCO ate with the men. So, if the food was not good, the cooks got shit right away. The cooks were on the ball all the time. Because there were no malays, we had an Indian cookhouse, and that was the most switched off cook position in the SAF. There were not many indian personnel in the came, so the Indian cooks always cooked what they liked to it. I preferred to eat there because it was almost restaurant quality. The only other place that is serving relatively decent food at that time is maybe the Commando camp.

Food was hell initially, not a joke, till not a 'white horse' galloped into camp, but a 'titanium horse' galloped in, the food @ the cookhouse became almost a 'culinary' delight, unfortunately, ROD was on the way...have to give up that 'privilege'.

The SAF food served during my time by the SAF cooks were horrible. Lots of wastage every meal. The food now serve is so much better. SAF soldiers eat better, towkays like myself also earn. Everyone wins.

still remember had to buy and carry my own plastic mug for brushing teeth, drinks, soup, night snack. that was truly retarded on the part of the saf. the other serious damage done to many enlistees was the canvas footwear. made in china shit and recruits had to run in them for miles.

In the replies to this thread, samsters basically are boasting about the kind of crap they were fed, each trying to outboast each other on who ate the worst food.

So I don't get it why they get upset when the SAF outsource the cooking to local towkays like myself. The quality of the food has improved a lot since. Shouldn't that be a point to celebrate, rather than to get sand in their oppie vaginas on the margins that we make?

Are oppies Commies and Socialists? They get sand in the vaginas each time a local contractor makes a profit on providing a good product/service to the government?

The lousier and shittier the food is, the meaner and more ornery is the army. It puts the army in a permanent bad mood and pisses them off all the time. this translate to a tougher fighting spirit on the battlefield. That is why the old timers are kick ass take charge ping kias who would dare to fight with gangsters in Kaoshiung. There is no accident that there is a correlation between better food and more guniang soldiers. Now specky guniang soldiers with so many rights in camp, parent visitations, good food, it has made them soft. They couldn't defeat a pack of dogs in battle. That is why old timers can complain about the food then.
