How Often Are National Guardsmen Tested for Drugs?
Question by jenna j: How often are National Guardsmen tested for drugs?
I have a close friend who is in serious denial about his drug problem (mostly cocaine). Since he won’t get help on his own I wonder if calling his commander will help. Will they do anything or brush it under the carpet? I worried that he’s eventually going to end up dead if there isn’t an intervention.

they will proabably test him for drugs.. and then he will get in trouble and possibly get kicked out of the national guard… but you can try it. good luck to your friend

Oh yes, they will do something for sure. He will be tested and if it comes back positive, they will bust him, confine him to base for two months and take money away from him. Additionally, he will be forced to get help and will be subject to drug testing on a weekly basis. If he comes up dirty a second time. They will put him out of the guard.
If its the only way to get him help, its worth it in the long run. Send me a message if you need support.
