I am not sure what the lesson is, but it is making me anxious. And aside from the anxiety, the military is forced to allow men to travel as long as they are not required to be part of military operations. I expect this to be true for everyone, who is not actively enrolled in the military. So this is creating loads of paperwork, just for someone give permission 99% of the time. And there are also no repercussions, as I understand it. So why even require men to ask for permission in the first place?
