Minion bolsters his argument by telling me that since WWII more airmen have been lost to second-hand smoke than to combat, and when I ask him how many that is, he says it doesn't matter. Am I missing something here?

Its not my argument. I sourced that material to prove that there was ban in boot camp.

Whether its true or not really doesn't matter because everyone buys into it. You folks need a new script.

He was quoting that from an af.mil news article which doesn't cite any background research for the statement at all. And it wasn't second hand smoke, it was smoking in general according to af.mil. I still don't buy that as a valid point that relates to any of this.
