Drug testing in the military--technical and legal problems.
The Armed Forces drug-testing program has been in operation since 1971. Since that time, its goals, capabilities, and methods of operation have undergone extensive evolution and change. As these laboratories developed, they helped to establish many of the currently accepted operating standards for drug screening. For laboratories considering entry into the business of drug screening, an examination of the evolution and current operation of the military laboratories will be of benefit. It will help to define the currently accepted standards and NIDA guidelines and assist them to avoid the types of problems that were encountered by the military laboratories.
