A fog of drugs and war
#2
Quote:U.S. Air Force pilot Patrick Burke's day started in the cockpit of a B-1 bomber near the Persian Gulf and proceeded across nine time zones as he ferried the aircraft home to South Dakota.

Every four hours during the 19-hour flight, Burke swallowed a tablet of Dexedrine, the prescribed amphetamine known as "go pills."

Force feeding speed down the throats of military pilots is the limited hangout.

The cocktail given to Special Forces on covert missions allegedly completely resets the body's chemistry.

Jacob's Ladder ostensibly explores events that happened during the Vietnam War. Five decades later, the chemists of the military-multinational-intelligence complex are still brewing "performance enhancing" potions and using them on human guinea pigs.
