5th August
With the news from the domestic front continuing to be impressively bleak Tiso and Tuka are in the War Room hoping that things at the front are less awful. The poor, naive fools.
"Good news Generalissimus!" Not-A-German Bernard announced.
Tiso looked around in confusion before remembering he was, for some never explained reason, the Generalissimus of Slovakia.
"Just President will do. And what is this good news?" Tiso replied.
"The mighty 1st Slovakian Infantry Division has been returned to our control."
"That's the mighty 1st Division on the the Eastern Front, as opposed to the mighty 1st Division on the Italian front?" Tuka clarified.
"Yes, the one that died but then got better." General Catlos confirmed.
"We've got to do something about that name." Tiso said. "It's just getting confusing."
Taking a short break from the war, Tiso, Tuka and Catlos visited Gejaz Fritz, Minister for Justice and Chairman of the Supreme Constitutional Court of State, to ask about how they could get around Article 74 and re-name the division.
"So you see the problem?" Tiso finished explaining their situation.
"Yes. It's not an easy problem, I'd say it's almost as tricky as trying to use a double-stick carpet bonding system without appropriate underlay tackifier." Fritz said.
Having no idea what that meant, but suspecting it wasn't good, T&T both nodded. Catlos just looked confused.
"However, much as tackless gripper has revolutionised carpet bonding, there is always a way. I recommend using parentheses." Fritz explained.
"Parent he shes?" Catlos mangled the pronunciation, making it sound like one of the US Command Names readers may remember from Furious Vengeance
"No, parentheses. Like these ( )" Frizt showed off his legal training by pronouncing the shape. "Technically they don't count as re-naming so aren't covered by the constitutional ban."
Relieved there was a solution, Tiso ordered the unit renamed the 1st Division (East).

Progress of a sort. Almost. If one has a very, very low bar for progress. And more carpet bonding action from our legal expert, what more could anyone ask for?
