This is a mantra that the people doing these “studies” need to have tattooed onto their foreheads, so that they can be reminded every time they look in a mirror.

“High energy drink use, which was classified as consuming two or more drinks per day, was significantly associated with those survey respondents who reported mental health problems, anger-related behaviors and fatigue“.

Huh. Go figure–Combat is stressful, causes anger-management issues, mental health problems, and wears people the fuck out. Big shock, that–Now, I wonder what else correlates with that? Wearing a goddamn uniform, maybe? Eating MREs? Being away from home and hearth? Getting shot at by mean people, who are trying to kill you?

This is another meaningless study produced by meaningless people, and is worth precisely what they are–Zero value added.

And soldiers couldn’t possibly be described as ever being exhausted and sleep deprived, could they? Not to mention aggressive.
