Picture Of Insanely Buff NSF On BMT Centre Facebook Page Goes Viral
It all started when the SAF Basic Military Training Centre (BMTC) Facebook page posted what it thought was just another picture of a recruit receiving his rifle — a procession that marks a soldier’s graduation from his training.

Also if you happen to be enlisting soon, you can ask Imran for tips on how to serve your National Service from your own home and use those 2 years instead to travel the world.
