Its unfortunate that:
a) there is no army barracks and beach nearby my house
b) Finnish Defence Forces has very few women in service
and
c) their uniform options do not include this one

In Israel everyone in field units carry guns 24/7 including home leave so such situations are quite normal.

I recall having this funny feeling after my release from army...like something is missing.

Almost mis-read that as everyone in a unit carries field guns.

Hey bro, this is your cue to run for parlement!

You can run on the platform of "bringing more uniform options to our troops!"
