Air Education and Training Command Public Affairs

6/21/2004 - RANDOLPH AIR FORCE BASE, Texas (AFPN) -- Tobacco use and possession
are no longer allowed for nonprior-service technical training students at any
time while on base or in uniform.

The change is included in Air Education and Training Command Instruction
36-2216, "Administration of Military Standards and Discipline Training,"
published June 16.

The policy states that Airmen will only be allowed to use tobacco if they are
off base and out of uniform. Before the policy change, students could use
tobacco products on base after duty hours, provided they were out of uniform
and had reached at least Phase III of the enlisted phase program.

Guess this means no more "Smoke 'em if you got 'em"? No more cigarette packs in
the socks. No more need to rush to the PX and buy your first USAF Zippo.

Oh my gosh, do flight suits still have cigarette pockets on the sleeves?

Does this mean that Instructor Navs can no longer ask students if their ASH
receiver is operational?
