Dienstag 16. Juni 2009 von htm

Army Brass Calls for Crackdown on Alcohol and Other Drug Problems. The U.S. Army is directing commanders to take steps to root out alcohol and other drug problems and get soldiers with addiction problems either into treatment or out of the service, the Army Times reported June 8. Army Vice Chief of Staff Gen. Peter Chiarelli is leading the campaign to crack down on alcohol and other drug related offenses, pressing local commanders to step up reporting of offenses and take sterner action on soldiers who test positive for drugs. Soldiers who get treatment but then relapse are more likely to be booted from the service, Army leaders said. (Source: Join Together, 6/15/09)
