I don't think it's due to inability to recognize heat stroke, just a truly farked up person who take ppl's lives for granted

So glad he's dead

So whose problem is it for a cpt unable to identify heat stroke isnt the answer clear?

When mas selamat got away who got punished? When the poor boy died of smoke grenade inhalation who got punished?

Humans are always trying to lie to themselves and shake away the obvious.

People already said was pancake; they gave it a milder term. Remember the fella who kena pancaked on the landrover?

Flooding say ponding. Well done.

So obvious

This captain thinks he's very smart.
Keep insisting he's right & wait & wait

But Captain's death doesn't absolve SAF
SAF should still be answerable

The captain is a barometer for nothing

Based on what's described to have happened, I don't think any reasonable person would think Dave Lee was tired or exhausted. He seems incoherent.
He couldn't speak or drink

This is definitely serious

I agree it was a failure of leadership



If EDMW is to be believed, we have an endemic cultural issue where it is celebrated that buay keng buay choot peng. There is an environment where your peers jeer at you if you try to serve NS with duty and honour.

OTOH The people in the SAF have KPIs and a duty to try to turn these reluctant recruits into a semblance of a fighting unit.

How then?

For those sergeants etc who were charged, if I was in charge, I will be very careful

If they were too lenient, it'll mean a soldier will successful get away with faking injury , fatigue etc.
But that soldier can be fixed later

But if they got it wrong, it'll mean the soldier can die or suffer from life long injuries

So its obvious what any decent person in the shoes of the sergeants should do.
Let the soldier faking it, get away with it
