Steve-
I don’t believe most civilian hospitals allow smoking.

But specifically to military... Please let us know how you evaluated degradation to fitness? For example, the ability to run 800 yards, rescue a buddy and return?

Second, overwhelming evidence points to smoking inhibiting wound care.

Let us know how these items were evaluated in your decision.

Enjoy making vets and their families seeking medical care a little bit more miserable. Jerk

My friend. We made our decision based on the freedom of veterans to make their own choice. Not active duty. And we are not promoting smoking. But we are promoting the right to keep the government from telling our vets what they can or can’t do at hospitals made for them

They paid a price, in theater or not, which most never do. Frankly if they want to smoke at the VA or not pay income taxes, to me it is a debt we cannot repay.

Like it or not, we all have habits and addictions. Just because you or I dont like thiers does not mean that their freedoms should be infringed.

Would be like me having the power to ban people from FR because I think what they are thinking is stupid...
