Well not the way one might think anyhow...

weird.
 
Interesting article...

I really hope that someone made a note to their med docs regarding their exposure....

Just in case the little bottle test comes up randomly for any of them in the near future.

Now some pictures of the vehicle from the below quote might make for an interesting sight.

In response, the crew of at least one armored car had camouflaged their vehicle with marijuana.
 
The news story was worth a smile.
 
"A couple of brown plants on the edges of some of those (forests) did catch on fire. But a section of soldiers that was downwind from that had some ill effects and decided that was probably not the right course of action," Hillier said dryly

Sir, I can't fight, unless I get a bag of Cheetos!
 
I never thought I would ever say that either but it's so true, that damn Pot just got in the way of everything!
 
[quote author=anonymous soldier]
"Sir, three years ago before I joined the army, I never thought I'd say 'That damn marijuana'."

Yes... damn that pot... damn it all to hell...

Pass the Doritos...


(wish I had my camera back, I have lots of pictures of said pot "forests")
 
it made for quite the entertaining  story to listen to when those boys got back in to camp..........pro patria
 
Meanwhile a private contractor from the West Coast is offering their specialist knowledge to the Afghan government in handling and movement of pot plants. They will use motorcycles and trucks to get around.

Changing careers there old buddy?  ;D
 
Wow.
As soon as I first read it I thought "Burn it down" then I read the rest and I'm like Ohhhhh
Its sort of like that scene in "Without A Paddle" the Grow Op people launched flares and those landed in the pot field setting it on fire..so the guys running away got high and the "killer dogs" got high. Pretty Funny.
 
Pretty funny. :D

...it also kind of reminds me of that line from the movie 'Alive'...

"I'll pay for the pizza if you go pick it up!"

edit:  check out Tomahawk's link - pretty interesting pictures.
 
Cute story.  Almost seems like it was 'planted' by Public Affairs hacks to take the edge and attention off the latest Canadian casualty figures.
 
Well if they did, hat's off to them....it worked
 
Waiting for the sudden influx of potheads to try and sign up, only to be turned away after the drug test  :blotto:

Why yes, a videotape of those soldiers who who suffered the side effects while suffering the side effects, may make for an interesting recruiting video!!  :o
 
You could make weapons out of the stuff, label it the "C420 (someone get it please! ) StonerNade".  Spread peace throughout Afghanistan. hahah...
 
Expect this to be a news item in the next few days:

Cheech Marin and Thomas Chong Appointed as Good Will Ambassadors to Afghanistan
