New Balance or Brooks?Originally posted by the Bear:i wear SAF running shoes

I still have the SAF New Balance shoes.... they're more suited for my flat foot condition.
They're wearing out already, though.... they must be nearing 4 years old. I may buy a new pair at my next ICT after they've given me the eMart credits. -

I ordered a new field pack and the new black duffel bag through the emart online service. I didn't want to buy them in camp (ITI - Tanjong Gul Camp) since I knew that they sell like hot cakes in camp and would sell out very quickly.Originally posted by the Bear:i've bought nothing but running shoes with my emart credits

However, the delivery day came and I didn't receive so much as a call. However, I was extremely busy and couldn't give them a call. I was forced to go for my ICT without those items which I so sorely needed.
One full week later, while I was smack in the jungles of Pasir Laba with just two more days to outpro, I received a call from the Army Logistics Base.... the storeman meekly told me that my items were ready.
I unleashed a full verbal barrage at the poor fella.... essentially I told him, 'I give up my holidays and risk my neck for my country..... AND THIS IS THE KIND OF &#$&#$ LOGISTICS SUPPORT THAT I GET?!?!?!'
He explained that they were having a supply shortage.... but surely the least they could do was to give me a call and explain that to me, right? Then I could have cancelled the order and have the credits returned to me so that I can buy them directly from my camp's emart. -
this is the SAF..
Stupid
And
F**ked-up -
As I pointed out to the guy....Originally posted by the Bear:this is the SAF..

I ordered a new field pack because my old one had all its plastic buckles broken. Considering that I was going for live heli-ops (I was waiting to be transported to the LZ at Pasir Laba), I didn't want to risk having things falling out of the field pack and dropping out of the chopper while in the air.
Ok, to be fair to the guy, maybe it's not his fault..... maybe someone else was supposed to call me but didn't do so. And I do feel a little bad for blasting him to pieces over the phone.
But when I'm out in the frontline risking my neck, I can't have my performance impeded just because some idiot in the rear echelon f***ed up. -

Some people I know used to serve in the US armed forces. they told me spending one's own money to purchase items needed for field operations either because they are in short supply or just plain inadequate for the task at hand is common. and they were talking about basic items like batteries, flashlights laces, socks, gloves, goggles and stuff!!! Seems most of the defence budget goes to high tech toys like planes and missles but they can't even issue decent boots and packs for the ground forces.Originally posted by fudgester:As I pointed out to the guy....

the US?
most of the money went into the pockets of asswipes like Dick Cheney while the grunts get substandard equipmentOriginally posted by av98m:Some people I know used to serve in the US armed forces. they told me spending one's own money to purchase items needed for field operations either because they are in short supply or just plain inadequate for the task at hand is common. and they were talking about basic items like batteries, flashlights laces, socks, gloves, goggles and stuff!!!
