Air Force Cracks Down On Inhalant Abuse

From The U.S. Air Force (June 16):

On June 8, the Air Force released a memorandum that revised current drug and alcohol definitions. The new scope includes other mood-altering substances, including household products. The straight shooting memo stiffened penalties against people who knowingly possess or use any substances besides alcohol or tobacco.

The updated letter of the law spells out a host of punitive measures the military branch can utilize should members ignore the rule. Offenders can be demoted to the lowest rank, dishonorably discharged and forfeit pay should they be found in violation of the policy.
