Песня группы “Ребята с нашего двора”
“Don’t tell mom I’m in Afghan” refers to the common practice that soldiers sent to Afghanistan would tell their mothers they were being stationed somewhere else so that they would not worry. In this song, a soldier writes a letter to her little sister saying he is in Afghanistan and to not tell their mother.
