I figure if our servicemen want to smoke as long as it doesn't interfere with their duties then leave 'em the hell alone!

What about the substantial majority of sailors who are irritated by the smoke and don't want to breath it into their lungs. Don't they have rights as well?

Its the armed services they can work out a way to accommodate both. Hell they spend extra resources accommodating women on board a sub should be able to take an existing area and make it a smoking room with heavy filtration.

Actually, no. When you join the military you give up all your rights.

In any case, the right to be free from smoke wherever you go is about as Orwellian as you can get, and when supposed conservatives start claiming it, we must admit we have been defeated by the left. At that point they have poisoned our minds and our ability to think logically.
