Abstract

Using the same questionnaire, the authors surveyed drug use at a military installation in 1970, 1971, and 1972. Oven the three years, the total percentage of respondents reporting previous drug use increased: the amount of use and number of current users also increased. For most drug types, the increases occurred between 1970 and 1971; heroin use, however, increased each year. The authors question the usefulness of specialized short-term drug treatment programs.
