Previously, PES C enlistees underwent a 7-week BMT programme. The new 9-week BMT programme will be conducted for PES C recruits. This programme will include light physical training and vocational training to prepare them for combat service support vocations, such as service medic, and those related to logistics and administration. (Effective Jun 10)

usually count 2 weekends, the 3rd weekend you are out.

i might consider.. but doubt it will be worth the travel time to and fro. think i'd rather stay in haha.

anyway so after the first 2 weeks can book out every friday?

if say u stay in changi, maybe worth it la. but will probably have to wake up much earlier and go home very late if u were to stay out. supposedly.

First 2 weeks BMT there's confinement in Tekong, don't think you can book out everyday, maybe after posted out from Tekong to Sembawang camp.

Does C9L9 even have grenade and firearms training?

okay so after the first 4 weeks at tekong i'll be posted to Sembawang right?

During the 5 weeks there am i supposed to stay in and book out only on weekends too? haha

4 weeks in tekong
- 2/4 weeks confinement, no bookout
- rest is every friday night bookout if no guard duty (fri or sat bookout depends on coy)

5 weeks in sembawang

not all c9l9 excuse firearm and grenade, but for your case(depression), it's excused. Yet to see any c9l9 everyday bookout in BMT, maybe they mean everyday c regular bookout
