Of over 80 people that i know personally who have quit...

80? Wow! Man...I gotta get more friends.


It is not that many when you look at it. i have been in the US Navy near 18 years now. Through bootcamp we could not smoke, so i knew 3 smokers who said they would use that 2 months to start quitting. Then to A school (nearly 13 months long all together) i knew over 200 fellow smokers. Onto my first ship, the USS America (CV66). THINK about it. A carrier has over 5000 people on it when all air wing are embarked. At 25% smoker ratio that many spout off, that still accounts for over 1000 smokers! And that was ONE of 2 carriers i have been on.
