    • Yup, I must agree the ad is damn lame, trying in all their pathetic ways to con people to sign on to do national slavery....the excitement they portray is so different from the hum drum of everyday regular life.....we all know that....

      And also from the marketing pt of view...was zipping around town in the mrt when I saw this printed ad about how a child progresses from playing with a small toy boat to a young chap in a yacht, to a guy in a fast speedboat to an officer at teh wheel of a navy ship or something.....

      C'mon isn't it obvious that most likely scenario that a guy owning and drving his own speedboat would have made his fortune in the corporate world to be able to afford a speedboat. As I always say, you are more likely to make your fortune in the corporate world or business world than in the navy....Anyway, who wants to be behind the wheel of a frigate when you can have the wind in your face in a speedboat, especially when you have arrived and you want to look cool to impress your clients.....

    • The Marines is a department of the Navy... Albeit the Men's department.

      The Navy gives you more opportunities to travel more than the Air Force or Army.

    • I think we can all admit that it is a liiittle funny at least Laughing but the poor CGI threw it off for me. Too bad we can't afford the good stuff. I wonder if this advert is part of the attempt to boost the CGI industry here?

    • Still the same opinion, the advs will not do anything to the public cos all SG'reans knows about all the craps inside the military world... only those who wanted to live such lives and those who need the money enough to sell themselves will sign up... Rolling Eyes

      You deserve a tight slap for that.

      Yes, the ad is lame, but you're worse.

      And how much do you know? Do you know that the ads have been successful to a certain extent in psychoing people to sign-on?

      Does he sound like a businessman to any of you?
