We use to have the mandatory battalion parties where we were limited to 3 beers per man. We found a way around this by finding a non-drinker. I was friends with a Jehovah Witness so I was good.
People always find ways around it. We had one NCO ordered vodka and stashed it in a water bottle. God knows how long he saved up, but he damned near got alcohol poisoning before he was arrested. He was court-martialed. Definitely not worth it.
