Hey! Thats not true! We(the dutch) have some of our troops parading in the gay pride parade later this year, so even if your guys don't smoke, they still look better then our "guys".
@zelfmoordkonijn: nah soldiers marching in a gay pride parade is pretty disheartening for your security... if i would invade a country it would be the one with gay soldiers.
@Twik63: Oh really? I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of their missiles! [/joke.... sort of...]
Smoking does have the advantage of training you to breath air with lower oxygen content, so in high altitude battles they're less likely to get tired out... or so claims my mountaineering friend.
Poor Snake. The guy has been through hell and back, killed both his father and twin brother with his bare hands, his body is falling apart and all the guy wants to do is have a smoke.
Then there's that little brat Sunny telling him "NO SMOKING ON THE FLIGHT SNAKE!"
But if you smoke, you're paying a load of extra tax for the privilege anyway! There's must be some perfect balance that those clever government types know where they like people to smoke a little, so they can get taxes from that, but not smoke too much so they'll die earlier.
@woons: I smoke around a pack every 2 months or so. I don't find it addicting at all. I also have extremely limited cash flow and I only buy the fanciest of the fancy. Djarum Blacks are the best.
@Kenny: Same here. Mine are Djarum light specials. That is until they now cost $10.83 for a pack of twenty cigarettes. Even though a pack lasts me 3-4 months, it's still not worth it.

Interesting take on the subject.
Personally, I never took up the habit, and neither should other people.

Quit smoking so you can stay alive to pay taxes! You're no good to us dead!
