Training mishaps

This report from Singapore catalogs how a variety of training-related injuries and deaths have been handled as between civilian and military judicial authorities. Excerpt:
[Defense Minister] Dr Ng [Eng Hen] had also stressed that when training incidents occur, MINDEF and the SAF must “rely on our judicial system to determine the facts and mete out the appropriate punishment where required”.

“It would be wrong and unfair to punish SAF servicemen beyond the level of offence committed which has been determined by independent and impartial judicial processes,” he stated.
