Legalizing Marijuana and Being in the Military?

Question by Benji: Legalizing marijuana and being in the military?
With this uproar of possibly legalizing marijuana to help stimulate the economy, what would the stand-point be on military members doing marijuana? I haven’t done any drugs since joining the military (obviously) and since marijuana essentially is better for you than alcohol, would it basically be just like alcohol? “Well, don’t come to work drunk / hung over.”?

Would military members be able to partake of marijuana just as we’re able to consume alcohol? If it were legalized, of course.

the military would still be able to outlaw it and would do so

Plus the country will not legalize it anytime soon. California might, but the federal government will not
