Congressman Calls for Reform of U.S. Army's Counterproductive Anti-Drug Program, 1976-01-01 - 1976-12-31

Congressman Joseph P. Addabbo is criticizing the U.S. Army's anti-drug program, stating that it is actually encouraging servicemen to use illegal drugs rather than deterring them. He believes that the program is causing more harm than good, and is demanding changes to improve the effectiveness of the education programs. Addabbo is particularly concerned about unqualified counselors and the lack of accountability for officers whose men become involved in drugs.
