Small manifestations of reality Ukrainians live in: The tag says: “My dog is home alone. Please, inform the people, <indicated> on the other side of the tag”. If it seems like a regular tag to you, think why Ukrainians put it on their keychains.

Two photos here from the USAF. The first is from 2013, with a maintainer opening an F-35's Maintenance Interface Panel (MIP). The second photo is more recent, showing a maintainer performing the same task. But something's changed: the MIP now has marks near each fastener. Why?
