Särmä Jarru pudding morale patch


A common army legend in the Finnish Defence Forces is called "Jarru", which is Finnish for a brake. Rumour has it that any dessert served contains a dose of hormones to reduce your sex drive, to make things easier. We'll leave any estimates of plausibility to you.
Size: 50 x 65 mm, velcro backed.
Who is spreading these rumours?
Army legends are an age-old tradition that transcends the barriers of culture and language. Speaking of gossip-ladies should not be allowed for men who have served, that's how severe it is.
Army legends are often so unrealistic that you could debunk them with the slightest second thought. For instance, why would anyone want to make soldiers flaccid in service? Maybe "Jarru" does exist, but it suppresses critical thinking instead.
Another common thing between army legends is that "you had to be there", even if you didn't witness the story. People who haven't served will give you a blank stare if you try to explain. A few other army legends:
- The story of a Finnish conscript who had previously served in the French Foreign Legion. When there was an alert in an exercise, he cut a hole and escaped through the side of the tent
- A certain lieutenant in your brigade is barred from promotion due to shooting his pistol into the refectory ceiling
- A certain lieutenant in your brigade is barred from promotion due to dismissing conscripts from the roof of a ski shack
- Almost anything from Skippy's List and told as your own.
