So, it's a big drill weekend, and all of the drill status guardsmen were in the house. Ideal time to break-out the drug testing program. I get tasked to be an observer, so, I track down the unit 1st Sergeant to make an inquiry:
ME: "So, where are they facilitating the drug tests at?"
1st SGT: "Oh, they're down in the SS Conference Room."
ME "The S-S Conference Room? Perfect place for drug testing!
I had already made a communism joke during the morning brief when they brought-up some of the dangers of May Day in the local community, and I turned to my section and said "Heil Stalin."
Anyway, countless drug and pee jokes later, it's finally over with. We laughed about how numerous guardsmen got popped for marijuana after WA legalized it, thinking it was okay for them. Someone in the conference room had YouTube up on a large monitor, and was playing extreme sky diving and rock climbing videos with loud techno music. People were coming in and getting weirded-out. At one point, the other facilitators caught me trying to play the Cops theme, and vetoed it.
Also, I asked every guy who got stuck with me if they still self-identified as male.

So you volunteered to watch other guys pee? That sound you just heard was JPP lefties running to join the military. Legion Fag just ran over Leonpussy

We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
Ergo, religion.

Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

A number of guardsmen were predictably confused as to how we are constituted. For example, the reserves didn't seem to have a problem with the new law, because they automatically view themselves as federal. Just because we answer to the WCMJ, swear an oath to our governor, and answer to state officials like the Adjutant General, Commander of the WA ANG, etc., does not mean we aren't also constituted within the AF, DOD, UCMJ, and, of course, we also swear our oath to the President.
Bottom line, WA and CO national guardsmen may not use marijuana.

Honestly, I'm not sure how troops are treated on average. I once saw a newly minted chief master sergeant threatened with legal action under the WCMJ, but offered the chance to retire peaceably, as he had over 20 years of service. It's generally considered to be a career-ender, though.
I imagine that a number of troops who got nailed merely tried to use the law to feign ignorance, in hopes of receiving leniency. Most were probably just ignorant, though...

at one time the concept of internal possession (drug testing for metabolites) was inherently violation of privacy, and presumption of innocence
It's amazing how we will twist the Constitution to fit our rationale du jour' .
The libertarians are correct on this - unless you manifest intoxication ( which degrades abilities to perform duties) it's your body to use as you please.
And the really stupid thing is metabolites do not test for intoxication.
