Meet the Female Recruits of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF)

Presenting to the world… the female soldiers of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) going through their Basic Military Training (BMT) as fresh  recruits:

Welcome to the army
Their training instructor talking them down, acting big shot
"A-ah, O-ah Infantry..."
Running with full force for their 2.4 run, putting lazy male soldiers like me to shame
Doing sit-ups
Learning how to throw cold, hard punches
Learning how to kick perverts with female soldier fetish in the nuts
More kicking in the groin
Pissy faces as they wait for their night snacks
Water parade
Getting armed with a rifle
Another one getting her rifle
This one looks ready for war

Pictures via EDMW (silly captions by me). I presume these were taken by official SAF photographers since we are not allowed to even bring camera phones into any military camp in Singapore.

  • It's about time. Our nation is swimming with tough women. Consider the sport games and Mt Everest. They r ready.

  • Yet another batch of future specialists and warrant officers... fresh meat for the grinder. If I am not wrong, female officers will already have completed their Basic inside OCS while simultaneously going through the officer course, yes?

    Hmm well, good publicity is always good, perhaps MINDEF PAFF should do a feature on them.

  • It's amazing how little some people knows about servicewomen. There are 2 kind of BMT, combat and service. For combat(OCS/SISPEC), the servicewomen undergo the full BMT, similar to what the serviceman are going through. For servicewomen who signed up service vocations, they will undergo a 3 week BMT instead.

    For OCTs-to-be, these servicewomen have to go through and be selected for OCS. Therefore, OCS does NOT conduct BMT.

  • I understand that females can have a very big and significant contribution to our country's defence. But I personally do not agree that they should be on front line duties. I am not doubting their capability but think about this. What happens if the platoon gets captured POW. Who do you think the enermy will torture for information. I know the females may be strong enough to handle it, but i doubt the fellow male soldiers will. Once the cries of the female being tortured is heard, the hearts of the men will fail...

  • Hi all congrads to the women who choose to support thier nation. When you as a Service member say I will defend the constitution against all enemies ,,, that is a powerful statement. They dont have to but choose to..... its the commentment.... to me that is even more powerful than being conscripted ...congrads ladies "Give them hell"

  • Clair had a very impressive high school and college resume, and it†s amazing that he fell all the way to the 7th round of the 2008 draft.
