Basic Military Training. Every Singaporean male goes through it, yet not everyone gets all the details beforehand. We're here to help – unofficially.

We've got your back. These pages contain everything you want – and need – to know about Basic Military Training (BMT) and National Service (NS). And we mean everything.

Written for boys and their worried parents, Fall In! pulls back the curtains on a rite of passage and explains all the baffling terms. What is POP? Are mobile phones really prohibited? What is a water parade? What can you bring to make life at camp easier? (Pro-tip: a little Febreze goes a long way.) And how do you handle the unavoidable Tekong barber?

This easy-to-read, comprehensive guide goes beyond what Mindef will tell you and is the perfect companion to BMT. The authors talked to many recruits and NSmen during their time in NS and received support from the National Youth Council to write this book.
