Spice and other similar herbal substances are on the military’s radar. Common names for Spice include Genie, K2, Skunk, Spice Diamond, Spice Gold, Spice Silver, Yucatan Fire and Zohai. The military is now prohibiting use of Spice or similar substances through punitive regulations/instructions.

Each branch of the service views illegal drug use as incompatible with continued service, and attacks illegal drug use through trial; by courts-martial or in some limited cases, Article 15 with a follow-on administrative separation.

With the inclusion of substances such as spice and other similar synthetic substances in punitive regulations and instructions, your command can now punish you for misusing those otherwise lawful substances under Article 92, for failing to obey a lawful general regulation/order. Punishment can range from Article 15, administrative separation and even court-martial.

If you are accused or suspected of using spice or any other type herbal substance, call Mr. Sigmon immediately.
