Dear brathers,

I'm 27 y.o this year and have completed 5 out of 6 of my reservist cycle. I have a slipped disc and my specialist recommended me to down-pes. I consulted my CO about this and he told me that if I were to down-pes from A to C2L9, my vocation will cease and I will need to fulfill the cycle till the age of 40.

Is it true?

NSmen must update their NS HRCs if they should develop any new medical condition or if their existing medical condition has worsened which might affect their ability to perform their duties during ICT. Arrangements will then be made for them to attend a medical review at the SAF medical centre to assess their fitness for NS.

The NSmen MUST bring along all investigation results and memorandums from his external physician/specialist during the medical review. Depending on the outcome of the medical review, the NSman may be given a medical certificate to defer him from ICT, be scheduled for a medical board to downgrade him if his medical condition is significant, or referred to a restructured hospital for further investigation. In the event that the medical officer determines that the NSman’s medical condition will not affect his ability to participate in the ICT, he will allow the NSman to attend the ICT.

In the first place,it your duty to declare any medical condition,if not,u do know that you can be charge

Your CO is a regular? Is he MO,if not how he know you will down pes to C2L9?

What rubbish is he talking about?

Even though i'm not from your unit,YOU COMPLETED 5 CYCLES,even you get post out or change vocation,the 5 cycles still there,you just need to complete another 5 and that it you MR

Why i know this?Becos there a uncle whom join our unit when his previous one step down

He have completed 7 cycles in his previous unit,hence he join us for another 3 and he straight away MR

Conclusion,you have to declare your condition to the MO aka medical centre,you cannot hide it,it an offence

Also to add, if anything happened to TS, while he is on duty, due to his medical condition and he knowingly withheld such information, TS may end not getting any compensation.

if he says that, it probably means he gonna kick you out of your unit

but as C2, you dun need ippt, rt and whatever bullcrap that comes with it.. the catch is you will not MR until you finish ur remaining 4 cycles until u get ur new unit if he decides to post you out

whatever it is, post out post out la :s13: just declare and down pes. health > ns
