I just my gasmask today. Yuck.

[Sirotnikov]

The homefront command ordered masks to be opened and measured, while keeping the filters sealed. From now on, we must take the masks with us, wherever we go.

My gas mask also has a special ventillator since I'm asthmatic.

The mask has a funny rubbery smell and isn't that nice. I think it might be too small on me, since the last time I was measured for size was many years ago.

It's a bit tight and sits awkwardly. But it does seal my face quite well (when I cover the inhaling valvue I can't breathe, and the mask changes shape) so I think i'll stick to it.

****, need to watch the TV more often.

Man, I remember those damn masks at boot camp...

Try to wear it while jogging - aarrgghh!

[Sirotnikov]

The title should of course include the word "measured"

[David Floyd]

Why do you let the military order you around?

[Sirotnikov]

Gee, thanks Olaf

try and wear it while kissing.

[Az]

It's not compulsory, David.

[David Floyd]

Siro used the phrase "ordered", thus my assumption.

[Pekka]

David, if there was a gas attack and you were ordered to put on your free mask would you refuse to wear it to demonstrate they can't order you around?

[Az]

I think that Big Crunch has grasped the nature of that "order" fully.

Correct. Today, only about 1/3 of the young men in Sweden have to go. In my youth it was more like 90%. You would get jail for refusing.

I was guarding a radar facility against spetznaz saboteurs.
