One path binds every Singaporean son from all walks of life to a uniform point: 2 years in National Service.
One path sees every boy change his clothing of choice to the green SAF Uniform.
Yet, each person's path is unique and un-uniform. To some, it is an extraordinary journey.
How do you want your path to turn out?
Vocation
/vōˈkāSH(ə)n/ Noun
a type of work that you feel you are suited to doing and to which you should give all your time and energy, or the feeling that a type of work suits you in this way
- Marriam Webster
Every NSF has a vocation of their own. Commonly abbreviated with acronyms like ASA, SA-GE, TPT-OPR, INF-TPR, there are perhaps a thousand different vocations. Yet, not everyone can relate to the meaning of 'vocation'. It is a fact that for almost every single NSF, they cannot choose their vocation. But that doesn't mean you have no control over your future. Here, we help you in understanding and getting your desired posting
