Non-article[edit]

European soldiers have smoked tobacco since the Thirty-Years War and keep smoking. The same is valid for soldiers of the United States which are in existence since 1776. Analogue to the occasionally excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages, every soldier is and has been judged by his military performance and not by his eventually unhealthy habits. It is ridiculously absurd to judge this segment of the population by unhealthy behavior while their occupation (i.e.) duty includes dying. This abolitionist-lobbyist point of view puts the soldier on the level of a slave of the state, maltreated until death but not permitted to be master of his own body. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:C0:DF3B:E500:1DE:2D1F:2DE7:73C5 (talk) 12:53, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
