The_King Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 SINGAPORE: Actor Aloysius Pang has died after sustaining serious injuries during a Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) training exercise in New Zealand, the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) said in a statement on Wednesday (Jan 23) night. The statement is reproduced in full below: Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Operationally Ready National Serviceman, Corporal First Class (National Service) [CFC (NS)] Pang Wei Chong, Aloysius passed away at 2045hrs on 23 January 2019 (SG time) at Waikato Hospital, New Zealand. An Armament Technician from the 268th Battalion Singapore Artillery, CFC (NS) Pang was carrying out repair works inside the Singapore Self-Propelled Howitzer (SSPH) with two other SAF personnel on 19 January 2019 at Waiouru Training Area, New Zealand. Unfortunately, CFC Pang sustained injuries when the gun barrel was lowered. He was evacuated to Waikato Hospital, a regional trauma centre where he underwent a number of surgeries to treat his injuries. Dr Teo Li Tserng, Chief of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery at Tan Tock Seng Hospital, was flown in to assist the New Zealand medical team tending to CFC (NS) Pang. Despite surgical attempts to repair damaged organs putting him on artificial life support, CFC (NS) Pang succumbed to the injuries and passed away. An independent Committee of Inquiry will be convened to investigate the circumstances leading to the incident. A press conference will be held on 24 January 2019 to present the preliminary findings and will be chaired by the Chief of Defence Force. The SAF will be making arrangements to bring the body of the late CFC (NS) Pang back to Singapore. The Ministry of Defence and the SAF extend their deepest condolences to the family of CFC (NS) Pang and will continue to render assistance and support in their time of loss.

Moderators invis Posted January 24, 2019 Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2019 Quote CFC (NS) Pang was carrying out repair works inside a Singapore Self-Propelled Howitzer (SSPH) during a military exercise in New Zealand. He died at 8.45pm on Wednesday from injuries sustained last Saturday - his lungs, heart and kidney were damaged - when a gun barrel was lowered. He had undergone three surgeries and was put on artificial life support. Major-General Goh said that CFC (NS) Pang was with another technician, and also a gun detachment commander inside the howitzer. They were called in to perform diagnosis on a suspected fault in the gun. As part of the rectification process, the gun barrel had to be lowered to its standby position. MG Goh said that when the gun barrel is lowered in the howitzer, the space in the cabin would be reduced. "However, it is typically sufficient for artillery operators as well as our technicians to be able to operate within this cabin," he added. "What we found is that unfortunately he was unable to get out of the way of the barrel as it was lowered. He was caught between the end of the gun barrel and the interior of the SSPH, and he suffered crush injuries as a result." sauce: https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/saf-to-lower-training-tempo-to-better-focus-on-safety-in-wake-of-actor-aloysius-pangs?xtor=CS3-17&utm_source=STSmartphone&utm_medium=share&utm_term=2019-01-24+17%3A01%3A34 [ https://t.me/Invisssss https://discord.gg/PvPTrye https://www.instagram.com/invisman_/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
