even
on reserve duty
What probably differentiates the standing army from reserve duty
in the minds of most soldiers is not having to get their hair cut
and not having to fold their pants into elastic bands above their
boots. Most of these soldiers are greatly disappointed to learn
that even during reserve duty they're expected to use those elastic
bands. I still have a collection of hair clips used for tieing my
hair behind my head, and I haven't thrown out the elastic bands
either.
