"Lost productivity"?



Tobacco was once government issue as in GI. It's value as a calmative & appetite suppressant has been known and utilized by soldiers for centuries. As with all things in life the benefits in many cases outweigh the negatives.

I'd think that from a health-conscious standpoint, it'd be highly more advantageous to work on banning being shot at.
I still can't even believe it.

Bingo!! Unless they are planning on converting the military into an accounting agency, this is ridiculous. Personally, I'm all for giving our fighting men and women anything they need to be comfortable while they defend our interests.

God bless you all.
