I thought it was a joke order, and it still could be, but this cracked me up:

Honestly, probably not. Sure stuff like alcohol restrictions, but do you really think kegsbreath is letting the military tell its troops they may very well be interested in buttplugs, but Bahrain prohibits them so they need to leave them with the booze back home.
