Germany allows scooters, like those pictured here, for travel on public roads. (DOD)
Scooters have, in recent years, become one of the most popular ways to maneuver around major cities. However, like the operation of any vehicle, sobriety is key.
In Germany, the land of Oktoberfest and beers served in boots, it can be hard to avoid the temptation to imbibe and drive. Some soldiers stationed at Grafenwoehr Training Area in Bavaria, unfortunately, sipped and scooted their way to an alcohol ban.

There’s nothing like cracking open a cold beer after a long day at work. But soldiers who reside in the barracks at some assignments have been limited from doing just that by Army policies.
In June, the Sergeant Major of the Army took to Reddit to ask questions about improving culture, including one that hinted at the possibility of removing barriers for soldiers to drink alcohol in the barracks.

SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL thanks for the READ OF THE DAY...
My Dad always said if I had plans of drinking... it better be at home.

When I served 2000-2020 CONUS, there was just a limit of how much alcohol you could have in your barracks room at one time.
