Wha?

A military coup in Singapore? Was the Old Man thinking when he said that? A conscript army led by depoliticised commanders carrying out a coup? Unless he meant that the Party would infiltrate the SAF and use it as a tool ... you know, maybe. The WOSPEC corps is quite thoroughly depoliticised but also thoroughly accustomed to obeying and carrying out orders, since that is its job after all. The top of the Officers' Corp, on the other hand is quite the other way. Hmm.
