My grandfather picked up smoking in WWII because non-smoke4s didn't get any breaks from digging trenches.

It took over 50 years, but WWII still managed to kill him.

Still a big reason a lot of joes start smoking. If you don’t have nicotine and alcohol issues going in, the Army is happy to issue you some.

The Air Force may have split from the army in 47, but some traditions carried over.

Wouldn’t be at all surprised if most of those AAF guys had a flask in the bomber jacket. Gets cold at altitude you know.
