The photograph was published because it was to encourage and convince the public, more targeted towards men, to serve National Service. The photograph is trying to show that it would be good to serve national service, as shown and evident in the smiling men in the photograph. The men can be seen shaking hands with the officer and has a joyful expression on their faces. The men were very happy after finishing their National Service as shown in the photograph, further implying that it would be a good and beneficial to serve NS. The British had just left Singapore leaving Singapore with nothing but themselves to defend their country. After that, National Service was made, hence being a brand new form of defence for Singapore back then in 1969. Thus, this photograph was published to convince the public and locals to be more willing to join, sign up, and serve national service as it would be highly beneficial for the country and themselves.

The photograph was published because it was to show that Singapore wanted to show that introducing National Service to the nation is a good idea for both the men in Singapore, and the country. This is because the picture shows that the first 1000 men who helped serve the army were smiling and showing their appreciation to their commanding officers after they had completed their two years of service and are returning to civilian life. This might also be so that people will feel more encouraged to join the army as not many people were willing to sacrifice their lives and spend two years in the National Service.

It was most likely published to show that NS was not as bad as some locals think as we observe the servicemen smiling and shaking hands with their commanding officers showing that they respect them greatly. It may also encourage others to join NS as it shows them that it isn’t as bad as they may think which will then help Singapore rebuild its military strength after the British military withdrawal.

The purpose of the photograph being published was to reassure the locals in Singapore that they are finally safe from external threats. The photograph was meant to be shown to the locals in Singapore, showing that the country finally has a defence force. The intended outcome of publishing the photograph was for Singaporeans to feel a sense of security in the country, as at that time, the British withdrawn their military presence from Singapore, leaving Singapore without a defence force against external threats.
