Number Shout Saab!

I was reading the JF-17 thread and Fraudiya’s lament to how he walked away from the Airforce, and started thinking about my own time as a cadet in Sargodha. This is just to revive some old memories of the beloved Drill Staff and some of their more memorable insults/comments/events. Hopefully this will revive fond memories for those of us who were cadets and make those of us who weren’t give thanks that they didn’t go through it!

If you were a cadet/officer/service member please list the memorable events/sayings of your drill staff/sgt. I hope this is the correct forum for this. If not my apologies.

I will start off:

Staff: Yaad rakhain…parade aap ki namaaz hai aur parade ground app ki masjid!

Cadet: Staf, aap ki masjid main kutta phir rahaa hai.

Staff: Moon ko band krrrainnn!

Suring the hot summer months we were sometimes made to stand at attention in the sun as punishment:

Staff: Jiss nay sabaq seekh liya hai haath kharaa karay!

Cadet raises hand

Staff: Saab! shun main harkat! Number shout saab!

Another Staff during early morning drill: Saab main aap ka naashta rok to naheen sakta lekin thanda zuroor kar sakta hoon!

Too saab…tum saab! Jab drill theek karo gay to aap saab kehnay kay qaabil ho gay!

Re: Number Shout Saab!

So you’re a Sargodhian mufakkar. Good to know. :slight_smile:

Re: Number Shout Saab!

Also Add some of the memorable stuff from your NCC! Those are also some fun 40 days, aren't they?:D

Re: Number Shout Saab!

Yes Haris. My batch mates went on to 93rd GDP.

Re: Number Shout Saab!

Yes by all means share your NCC experiences it would be great!. A few more that I remember:

"Break lainee hai to mehnat karnaa ho gi. Knee to chest mangta hoon Saab!"

"Saab! Aap say kahaa thaa woh darkht kay gird shoot maar key aein (run to the tree and back) naa kay aap darkht kay paas jaain uss ka haal aur uss kay khandaan ka ahwaal pooch kar aaein."

Seniors: "Buggers! Aaagaye ho Airforce per ihsan karnay?"

If by mistake we looked at seniors getting punishment: "Bugger! tumhaari bhi baari aye gee bechain matt ho....Eyes Down!"
