National Service is 50 years old.

And every mother son in Singapore ought to know that the first day of every July is SAF Day.

Sticking to its annual tradition, this year's NS50 Recognition Promotions will start on June 30 and end on Aug. 10, 2017, to recognise the contributions of past and present NSmen from both the Singapore Armed Forces and the Home Team.

Some of it is worth taking note of, while others are meh.
