DODMERB Drug Test

I heard some excellent stories at Captain’s Mast about how prohibited substances magically got into the accused’s body.
- The helpful girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse who worried accused might fall asleep while driving.
- The ever-popular “people two blankets over at the outdoor concert.”
- The special baked goods gifted by a friend, unknowingly consumed.
- The exchange of bodily fluids, and I won’t get more graphic than that, but it took an iron will at Mast to listen to earnestly-told stories involving this method.
- And many more!
working in court, there are oh, so many more 'stories' about positive test results, they never fail to entertain, and like you said, they do require an iron will not to smirk!
 
Very little leaves me speechless, but you did with that.....
 
My comment was posted in response to JackDuncan's posting so there's no confusion :wiggle:
 
I was a little surprised to see a bunch of “likes” appear out of no where. Thank you very much!

This thread reminds me of DS #2’s visit to the Vanderbilt NROTC unit many years ago. His #1 choice was U Mich and I was probably pushing a little for Vandy. In any event, we were back in Nashville, my hometown, for a wedding. So DS sat in on classes and arranged a visit to the NROTC unit. We walked in and the place was empty, except for the PMO and the recruiting officer who greeted us.

We walked in, introduced ourselves, and heard from another room, “I’ll be right out, doing a UA. You guys are welcome to do one.” That was the PMS. We demurred. Had a great meeting. He was dressed in PT’s. He did a wonderful job of selling the Navy to DS. We wee in there for at least an hour. I was ready to join.

Contrast that with U Mich, DS‘S first choice. We spent time and $ to make the visit to the unit. DS was informed ahead of time, that the PMS wouldn’t be available. We visited the unit anyway and the Asst. give us a tour and answered questions. Here’s the kicker: He was in his office in civies. IOW he was hiding. In our experience that was very typical of the U Mich attitude, at least in regard to OSS applicants.

It all ended up being a moot point when he was kicked in the eye with a soccer ball. He received the 4yr to U Mich but medically DQed.

He followed plan B and his eye is fine.

p.s. @MullenLE answered my questions, which is why I [put him in the Pantheon
 
I would totally agree with cb7893....and the Pantheon is much nicer than the dungeon, where I'm usually relegated to :bounce1:

Now...take those stories...and imagine hearing them in court.

"Been there, done that..."

Oh, FYI, it's really embarrassing to laugh in open court. Judges tend to frown upon that.
