could almost see the telepathy going on on the fourth panel "that will mean troops" "what troops" "what??"

Notice that since her arrest, Erma has not worn an EDF uniform in any official capacity. Though her command rating has been restored, is she protesting passive-aggressively?

could be that command refuse to let her wear the EDF uniform

Or maybe the dry cleaning takes time ?... Or just it doesn't matter any more ? why would I wear if my hierarchy send me on a near-suicide mission ?
