Petite wrote I've seen plenty of cases of The Army allowing their troops to use almost anything they want.
Especially back in the day like when we went to Kuwait, Opiates, Weed, Muscle relaxants and ect.

Maybe your Sgt, was strict or just where you were deployed at was strict. I could be wrong I'm not in the army but I definitely know major drug usage is in the army and CBD is the least deadly out of it all.
Listen, i am all for legalization of a certain substance(won't say here cause it's not allowed) but it doesn't matter what it is, Active military are prohibited from using it. IF you are caught using it, it's a dishonorable discharge and you'll never get a job anywhere, ever again.

If you want to use CBD or other forms of THC then do it when you aren't enlisted.
I can't tell you what to do but if you want to risk your career and future over using CBD then by all means, have at it.

Also, this isn't back in the day during desert shield/storm.
A lot of things have changed since then..

But from someone who was in and saw stuff like this happen, i wouldn't risk it.
Again sorry. But CBD is not THC in any way. There are no tests for cbd. Cbd is 1000% legal. It is allowed in military my dude.


CBD is technically illegal since it is classified as a Schedule I drug under federal law. A pharmaceutical form of CBD, called Epidiolex, was only recently cleared by the FDA to be tested in children with severe epilepsy.


It's not legal but again, if you want to risk your career by taking it, go ahead.
But a dishonorable discharge isn't something you want on your resume.
Got me there. But OP is completely safe as long as he knows his product is solely CBD. If he looks into it he'll be fine. There are literally no tests for it.
I also believe he will be fine.

CBD has little to no effects and honestly if you pull out "drugs" in the army chances are your surroundings will probably ask for some lol.

I dont think it should be about if it shows up on a test or not. I think it comes down to integrity. I know youre only air force but i wouldnt trust anyone in my company if they were using any kind of drugs. It makes you not combat ready.

Bingo, the answer i was looking for.

It comes down to if i can rely on the person. If i am in a firefight and RPG's and small arms fire are raining on my position, i do not want someone who uses narcotics to cover me.

It's as simple as that..

Here's my two cents on the issue.
CBD by itself is amazing. In the past I have used it a lot to help with any pain I was experiencing, and the calming effect it had was amazing. I don't know exactly what you want to use it for, but for treating pain it was amazing and I recommend people to give it a try.

CBD is legal in the majority of states, but still illegal at a federal level. For personal use I see no issue with it, but when it comes to using it in the Military it's a slippery slope I wouldn't want to risk. You're working for the federal government, so you want to make sure you follow the federal guidelines instead of the state guidelines.
