Yes the bunks were really small, just slightly bigger than a hdb bedrm with 4 double decker at 4 corners. Needless to say the cupboard was small as well.

Bro.................are you sure you can post this picture????..............

 

You mean the soldier with GPMG ? The pic is from a Mindef photo library.

 

Why I choose it is because I find it poignant since it was taken on the day of official opening of Murai Urban Training ground in 2008 and the soldier was running under cover of this thick smoke supposedly from smoke granades.

 

The very condition and place in which Pte Lee might be training under on that fateful day.

National servicemen's medical records managed electronically

Published on Apr 26, 2012

 

Mr Brian Tan for his letter last Saturday ('Be more accountable to national servicemen with medical conditions').

 

Since the late 1990s, the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has adopted an electronic medical records system for all servicemen.

 

This enables past medical records to be retrieved more efficiently during medical consultations. The current medical docket is used only for storing hard-copy medical documents issued by doctors outside the SAF.

 

The SAF Military Medicine Institute has verified that the fainting episodes mentioned in Mr Tan's letter were captured in his electronic medical records.

 

In addition, our medical records indicate that Mr Tan underwent a personal health screening in March last year, after which he presented the results to an SAF medical centre during a medical review in August. His medical review has been duly processed and we apologise for not getting in touch with him to apprise him of the outcome.

 

For medical confidentiality reasons, we have contacted Mr Tan personally to clarify his medical status. The Ministry of Defence and the SAF take the health and well-being of our personnel seriously, and will continue to maintain a high standard of medical care for them.

 

 

Lieutenant-Colonel (Dr) Lionel Cheng

Commander, Military Medicine Institute

Bullcrap! They way they treated us, was far worse then cattle heading to the slaughter house! <_<

They wanted the outside world to see they 'treat' us very well but in reality, we all know the truth.

 

I rem when I was enlisted and boarded the 3-tonner for the journey to CMPB, the Cpl in the tonner shouted at us to 'smile' at the family members and no one should cry......'cos one of the guys were actually sobbing...... [lipsrsealed][laugh]

Remembered my first visit to a medical centre because of high fever in SAFTI.

 

The young sa tong without even examining me said this, "Pte, do you know that malingering is a chargeable offence? Better dun let me catch you chao keng ok?"

 

Maybe many before me did that but it was a sobering experience that I was in the army then.

 

I got attend C for my fever.

 

And I did my dental filling in Nee Soon SBMT back then & the young dental officer kept telling me not to eat food for at least the next few hours. By late afternoon the little piece of filling came off without me even drinking a bit of water.

 

So much so for medical/dental treatment in the service then <_<

 

Hope today's 3G army does a better job of treating the father-mother sons as they have promised.

do NSF medics get to practise what they learn after they completed their medic course? many times, i see them sit one corner, some even read books. most of the time, nothing for them to do. I do hope SAF send them to hospitals to refresh and practise their skills so that it wont turn rusty later on.

The surgeon must be 华佗再世 or Asclepius.

 

He didn't even touch the patient right?
