FREEDOM!

Thou shalt follow all the rules we have internally while outside. Thou shalt not swear or curse, thou shalt not cause a ruckus. Thou shalt not purchase or consume alcohol while in uniform. Thou shalt not use narcotics while in uniform. Thou shalt not enlist the services of a commercial sex worker while in uniform. Thou shalt not combine articles of civilian clothing, such as a "Hello Kitty" t-shirt with the uniform. Thou shalt return before the alloted time. Failure to do so shall result in strong disciplinary measures. Thou shall return in full uniform. Thou shalt return with a respectable hairstyle and shaven. Thou shalt not return with illegal items including, but not limited to your cousin's dog, a commercial sex worker, or said cousin, if said cousin is not in the Estonian Defence Forces. Thou shalt return sober and not under the influence of any narcotics.
These were the cmmandments given to me by our platoon elder. Almost word for word (including the "Hello Kitty" shirt part). Oh yeah, I got two days of freedom in civilisation, because apparently I was such a good sport for the past 5 weeks. Yay for me! I can breathe in that fresh, free, civilian air and feel the smooth fabric of civilian clothing. While it lasts.
