Here is the 2016 revised salary scheme for the ATM. Don't forget this is basic pay and allowances are not included, plus higher ranks will also have extra allowances on top of basic ones.

Considering personal interest, academic qualifications and looking at the payscale, it's a bit frustrating for me not being able to join due to colorblindness 😛

Nowadays I can say ATM basic pay is pretty good. Even joining as private with SPM only can get starting basic pay of around RM 1500, not including allowances (which can get to around RM 800 alone, thats nearly RM 2300 right there).

Join with degree and skim kadet graduan, you can get starting pay of around RM 2500 depending on what degree, (engineering pays best at nearly RM 3000 not including allowances) and not to forget, the additional perk of getting hardened soldiers calling your sorry ass 'tuan!' all day long. laugh.gif

Granted, it's not that high considering, but its very different from the pay situation 10-15 years ago.

Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) are currently the 2 main refractive surgeries to correct myopia which are being performed worldwide, with more patients preferring LASIK to PRK because of better comfort and faster rehabilitation. However, in post-LASIK patients, there is a low risk of flap dislodgement. This risk increases with certain occupations which have a higher risk of trauma. Hence, there may be a role for PRK for people which such occupations, e.g. soldiers, parachutists, sportsman.


QUOTE
Most jobs do not prohibit refractive surgeries or LASIK. However, the Singapore Air Force (SAF) does not take in pilots, naval divers, submariners or some commandos who have undergone LASIK. Other types of refractive surgeries like PRK or EPILASIK are allowed. It is best that you check with the SAF about their requirements before undergoing surgery, recommends Dr Rosman.

No injuries after window falls from U.S. military chopper near Tokyo

user posted image

QUOTE
A window fell off a U.S. military helicopter Friday at a U.S. base southwest of Tokyo, but no one was injured, Defense Minister Itsunori Onodera said.

The incident at the U.S. Naval Air Facility, Atsugi, in Kanagawa Prefecture follows a similar one last December, in which a window of a U.S. military helicopter fell onto an elementary school playground in Okinawa Prefecture.

“While no one was injured (in Friday’s incident) and it’s a case that happened inside a U.S. military base, a window falling is a serious problem,” Onodera told reporters.

In the latest case, the window fell inside the premises of the U.S. facility at around 11:50 a.m.

The Maritime Self-Defense Force, which jointly uses the Atsugi base with the U.S. military, noticed that a part fell from a helicopter shortly after takeoff, according to Onodera. The U.S. military admitted it was a window, he said.

The helicopter does not belong to the Atsugi base and the Defense Ministry is confirming the details of the aircraft with the U.S. side.

Kanagawa Gov. Yuji Kuroiwa told reporters in Tokyo that he was “very shocked about the frequency of accidents involving the U.S. military.”

The Defense Ministry has called on U.S. military forces in Japan to provide more information on incidents and to take measures to prevent similar incidents.

In December, a 7.7-kilogram window fell off a CH-53E transport helicopter as it was flying over an elementary school just outside U.S. Marine Corps Air Station Futenma.

No one was injured, but the incident heightened concerns among people in Okinawa, which hosts the bulk of U.S. military facilities in Japan.

Last month, a U.S. F-15 fighter jet crashed into the sea off Okinawa, with the pilot picked up by a search-and-rescue crew from Japan’s Air Self-Defense Force.

it's a dedicated small tank warfare team

it also in charge to blow up asset that falls into enemy hand of left in the enemy zone during retreat

during the Bakara market we need to ask the US ATGM team to destroy the broken condor that left during the rescue mission so the APC will not be used by the rebel

Makes sense
Sounds more like a demo job though

But if NLAW is only to be used by them... that means not many were bought?
