  • Like any new course, trainees begin their various drills before embarking on their actual test. But this is not just any confidence course. This one takes trainees 1,000 feet above the ground, where they take a leap of faith from an aircraft with their parachute. This is the Basic Airborne Course.

    I did, almost 28 yrs ago before enlistment. An experience one will never forget in their lifetime. Usually 2 sorties of 10 per flight and the cargo net seats to endure. Nice if you are the first sortie that flies from Changi to Sembawang for drop. With the back door open all the time, it was the most memorable scenic ride to Sembawang

    Basic airborne course. Hope after this they will do another on the freefall course or jumpmaster course.

    I remember our sergeant major about C-130s: "Don't ask me what it's like to fly in a C-130. The first time I got on one, I had to jump off!"

    "On moving objects, Trains, Cars, Aircrafts etc. the flag should be waving rearwards as if it was flying in the breeze while moving forward.
    Showing the flag in a retreating motion is disrespectful to the flag."
    You can see this on passenger jets too, fyi (:

Seen people who are definitely NOT siao on and are not fit (enlist 1 month earlier due to not getting silver/gold for IPPT prior to enlist and got out 1 month later, thus 24 months over 22 months), YET, ends up donning the Red Beret (got fit enough and cleared all the requirements).
      1 month is all the instructors need to get them ("unfit") up to speed to the "fit" batch before everyone go through the same training to be CDO.

    • @DragonX2X7
      @DragonX2X7 2 года назад

      Reply might be 9 years late but if still interested to know, here goes:
      Voice out and let someone (military personnel) know before enlisting, ie, during the military general medical check up (before enlist letter), let the doctor know (may or may not help), go to CMPB to look for any recruitment officers and state your interest (more likely to be helpful) but also depends if interest is to sign on as CDO or just serve NS as CDO.
      Know of a person's experience, mentioned to the doc during general medical check up (cannot confirm if it helped or not). Sometime after medical check up, received a letter from "SOTAC" (Special Operations Tactical Centre) for interview at Pasir Ris Camp. The "interview" is like a half day thing, consist of IQ/Personality/Physical/Agility/etc test and the instructors there will ask if you are interested in joining CDO (+ express your interest from "1-10" in joining various other units) near the end. Not sure if things have changed but during then your opinion DON'T MATTER when asked about joining CDO or not. Heard a good number of people saying not interested to join CDO or don't want to join but ended up being enlisted as CDO trainee (which some of them graduated with Red Berets on their head). X amount of time after "interview", said person received another letter from SOTAC asking him to report to Pasir Ris Camp for enlistment. And thus began the journey for the Red.
      Heard some rumors of certain check being done (cannot confirm or denied if said rumors are true), like, family background, education, health, etc. 1 of the more common things said, fitness can be trained, health cannot.
      If keen to be a CDO regular, there are more chances even if you don't get in initially. There are a good number of people who came from various units from Army, Navy, Air Force and joined the CDO family.
      Mental strength, resilience, perseverance are some of the key things that they look out for.
