Another nail in the coffin of morale in that all events involving alcohol I.e. Thursday bops, exchange drinks, games nights and mess functions will have to move to the weekends where no-one will go to them.
The old "I only have fun when I'm pissed excuse".
Trust me - it's not true.
An average male starting at 19.00 can have two pints, two glasses of wine and two singles of spirits and be
completely clear of alcohol by 07.00 the following morning.
Most professional civilians don't drink all that much mid-week. A lot I know just have a glass of wine with their evening meal, if that. There's no reason why people in uniform should be any different.
