+5 i used to be a smoker so i am honest from the get go. i don't think smoking should be banned. if someone is willing to put their life on the line for me and they are only wanting to do something that is legal, then more power to them.

Sure, lets tell the people who are getting shot at for your freedom, that he cant have his everyday vice which is completely normal and legal.

NO!! Having been in the military,I am aware of the endless regulations the military has to control a soldier's military/private life,believe me,they do not need to add any more!!
by Jade on August 30th, 2009
No. If they get a chance to relax and have a smoke..let 'em. They put their lives on the line every day...the dangers of smoking is pretty insignificant. Certain areas..sure. The military as a whole, absolutely not.
by Thriftymaid on August 30th, 2009
I'm not at all concerned that those serving in the military may smoke. It's a legal activity. I'm so sick of the interference by some into the lives of others.
by xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx on August 30th, 2009
let them smoke and fight.

by Zack on August 30th, 2009
Oh good grief. For putting their butts on the line and dodging automatic gun fire, let them smoke as much as they friggen want.

And what next? Thou shalt not kill? It's what we do. For you.
by THE ROOKIE on August 30th, 2009
nope
by RosieGHM Jetpacker on August 31st, 2009
Yep I do...I think the world should be smoke-free, hate-free and murder-free! :) ((hugs))
by randomness - is now a Maestro on August 31st, 2009
Yep! Because I'm sure that all of the non-smokers in the military want a guy going through nicotine withdrawal watching their backs!!
Let them have their smokes for crying out loud.
by raylrodr on August 31st, 2009
Only once the Senate and Congress are alcohol free.
by thatsJustme on August 31st, 2009

I think it's fine if they smoke as long as they are in good shape (for their own safety)
by Rollie on August 30th, 2009
No. They may have their smoke free buildings and facilities, but not a ban against military personnel smoking. That would restrict them more than their civilian brothers and sisters.
by justmesuzanne on August 30th, 2009
Everyplace should be smoke-free.
by JakobA I^_^I the alooney on August 30th, 2009
Yaeh, order them to walk around in DU dust from the bulletcoats, then forbid them to smoke. It makes perfect sense. ;-))
Just for safetys sake I will point out the abowe is irony.
PS: It is interesting to note the nr of people who see smoking as a reward, Something they have earned the right to by putting their lives on the line.
What are blockades?

If you were in the military, how many guys did you know or hear about who got kicked out or let go, and what for?

So now that they repealed "don't ask don't tell", will the military be getting "faaaabulouth" new uniform designs?
