Like the boy in the Bubble who has no defense again against disease we members of the army Are con stantly being protected by our brain trusts at the top. The latest in a Long line of protective measures is the army policy on smoking what in John Hancock s name Are they trying to do it is bad enough being a second class citizen an having so Many decisions about your life made for you by someone who wants you to be in his Mold we constantly talk of Freedom Justice and a multitude of other americanisms. I agree that smoke bothers the nonsmoker and believe most smokers Are More aware of that fact today and try not to smoke out nonsmokers. However that is not the reason for this idiotic and communistic regulation. The reason is to make Many like one. No tour Way of life is it i m sure most of us Are aware of the dangers of smoking and being adults can and should decide for ourselves whether to Stop or not. I am trying to Stop not because of the army s policy or its recent tax Dollar wasting commercials which bombard an but because i want to. 1 almost changed my mind when the policy was made Public. I do want to improve myself in Many areas an quitting smoking is one 9f them. 1 would never Tell someone else to quit it is their decision not mine yours or the army s. So Why can t we As americans get to live and think As americans not some East bloc country break the Bubble Uncle Sam. Sgt Thorn Bagley san Zaebisch contend Germany of Yea i m a smoker you know the individual with no rights. So May i just say that 1.1 agree smoking should not be allowed in Confer ence rooms mess Halls Etc. 2. No non smoker should police cigarette Butts. 3. Smoking in closed in areas should be restricted. Sometimes i feel non smokers Are so precious an fragile they May break of listen up men and women 1. Don t be fat run two Miles and get in shape 2. Don t drink alcohol. Or at least Don t get caught driving if Yon do 3. Don t smoke the funny stuff. Again just Don get caught note the last two will get your hands slapped then you la be promoted to the next higher Grade of and for god s Sake Don t smoke cigarettes they Are dangerous to everyone s health. You could even die from them. Then How would you fight Battle seriously folks i give up. I Salute my counterparts the non smokers and the commander at fort Jack son you have done Well. maastricht Netherlands speaking As two of those lower class smokers rethink the new army policy on smoking is a bit absurd. We realize smoking in t the most loved of All vices but it s about All we have left. The uppermost Mission of a Soldier is to survive ii Edwin in Battle. During such a Battle Secretary Marsh and Gen. Wickham will be in the War room not smok ing. We will be in our foxhole looking at no smoking signs. I read carefully the reasons Given for such policy illness. Yet i agree with that one. Absenteeism. Probably More people Are absent due to sex than to smoking. Let s ban sex shall we causes premature death. Sure but so does a Russianak-47. Health care costs. I guess it is More honorable Mohave a social disease than to smoke. Physical fitness. Totally disagree Here. Smoking does t keep you from being physical desire does. Dod teachers staff and even visiting parents will no longer be allowed to smoke within View of students. Let s get these kids a Blindfold so that they never have to make decisions. Get them hearing Protection de vices so that they will never have to listen to anything corrupt such As that decadent Rock v Roll music. Put tape on their Mouths so they never have objections Are you fellow party members listening. We soldiers have enough stress in our lives Todeal with. We Don t smash that lieutenant who is unfair we smoke a cigarette resolve ourselves and driven. We Don t give up on a lest than desirable Mission we smoke a cigarette dedicate ourselves and drive Don t go to sleep at 3 . When communications Aren t in we smoke a cigarette stare at that equipment and drive on. As with most regulations this will be at the discretion of local commanders. We Hope these local com Manders will not become local dictators. Sgt Sean and Cheryl rom i read with great interest your article on the army policy to limit smoking. I say thumbs up to that idea read the surgeon general s report found on any cigarette package telling about dangers to your health. That your Means anyone soldiers included who make the decision to Light up. While i d like to see smoking curtailed there another area which could use some serious consideration As far As curtailment that is drinking thin about it How Many people smoke a cigarette and then get behind the wheel of a car and seriously or kill someone now consider the Drinker. Honestly i think the curtail missile is a goo project just pointed at the wrong target this letter May make some folks fume but if the idea could save one life it will have Well been Worth the Ink and paper. A concerned fatally member Offenbach Genny having read your article on the new army ban on smoking and haying recently heard other Broad casts indicating similar actions for Many Federal facilities in the Continental United states. I would like to know what the army or . Army Europe has i mind for those soldiers who Are required to work in the smoke filled areas typically found in the various International Headquarters . Nato shape Etc in this theater while 1 personally applaud the responsibility demonstrated by such a Tough decision it seems to logically support a Case where non smokers in these International assignments could either request Hazar Dous duty pay or a humanitarian reassignment. While the most direct solution would be to enforce the same standards worldwide such actions within the International sphere would certainly not Forward the image of tolerant americans who Are guests within the Host nation. However the recent policy seems to be predicated upon the belief that secondhand smoke is hazardous to the health of soldiers and that the army is responsible for removing such hazards. John p.
