The Military Skills Competition, known within the force as MILCOMP, is the annual contest in which units are tested on military skills. The defence force did not, in its announcement, name the units or individuals who took the top places, or say how many competitors took part this year.

The Enquirer has asked the SANDF for the competition results and will report them when they are provided.
