Actually, if they really didn't want soldiers to smoke, there's nothing stopping them from banning smoking even after boot camp. I don't believe they do this, however.

Title: Army Health Promotion Authors: Army Publications and Printing Command Document Number: AR 600-63 Build Date: 03/10/98 12:15:26 Build Version: 1.3.0 Book Path: /usr/lpp/internet/server_root/books/r600_63.boo

Highlights from source.

c. Smoking of tobacco products is prohibited in all military vehicles and aircraft and all official vans and buses.

j. Smoking during basic combat or one-station unit training is prohibited


Looks like the guys in the vehicle are breaking a rule of no smoking or maybe it doesn;t count of they are outside. In any case I found the direct reference for smoking bans in training for the army anyway.
