First ICT Feb 2023

[vintagepotato]

I will be going for my first ever ICT High Key since I ORD-ed 12 years ago.

My SAF1000 only states the following:
1) Bring SAF 11B
2) Report no.4 w head dress
3) Bring relevant personal belongings

My camp is Selarang camp and when I check on NS.sg, my unit is Headquarters 9 DIV / INF

I'm a bit confused because what does relevant personal belongings mean? Means dont need to bring FBO?

I checked with my friends, they say that usually a WhatsApp group chat will be created in advanced so that everyone in the unit knows what to bring and expect, but for my case nothing so far..

You can’t contact them?

You can’t contact them?

Tried calling, no response each time that's why have to ask here since I'm sure people have faced this situation before

From what I know infantry units usually need to bring FBO on first day to keep in bunk. You should try and contact them again until someone picks up the call.

Call NS hotline to request for the contact of your unit's S8/DYS8 and then check with him/her directly.

Usually if they require FBO, it'd be stated in the SAF100 'report in No. 4, headdress and your Full Battle Order (FBO)' something like that.

But call in to ask first.

What's your vocation during NSF days?

Will just follow the list, usually first day is more talk. If they do require FBO, can always bring on 2nd day. More important is to check stay in/out so you can plan what to bring ("personal belongings"). Some unit don't care about FBO unless its to prep for upcoming mob.
