American Drunk Army

When you first read this you might say “OMG, how can American soldiers be drunk while they must always be awake against any threat?”

you are completely right, me too thought the same way when I know about that matter, but the fact is that American soldiers and sailors were charged of excessive drinking.

About 12% to 15% of the American soldiers who are back from Iraq and Afghanistan were found to be Alcoholic addicted, especially young soldiers and women,  which approves that they used to drink an excessive amount of alcohol every day.

The question now is that what led those soldiers to drink?

I can come with some suggestions to answer this question;

Sure they were not well guarded by there bosses, something that can lead them not to care for any thing even a sudden attack while they are drunk.
May be they were in need to forget many bad memories they met there in the desert, hot weather, rare water, no prosperity, no lust, no…….., no……., etc.  something that forced them to stick to drinking in order not to think in their miserable situation.

I can think about drinking as their only easy way to escape from their present ( Bad Reality).
