Title: Soldiers sent home for steroid use
Post by: musclecenter on November 20, 2010, 08:44:01 AM
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/11/16/3068052.htm (http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/11/16/3068052.htm) ;D ;D

For Australian soldiers, a tour of duty to Afghanistan entails a good deal of danger. But a small number are getting into trouble of their own making.

Three soldiers have been sent home from Afghanistan after being caught using anabolic steroids. Earlier this year, four elite special forces soldiers were also found to be using steroids.

One defence commentator says the problem is worrying because although soldiers know they can be routinely tested for drug use, they are persisting with their risky behaviour.

The Defence Department says of the three men recently caught with steroids, one has been discharged and the other two are in the process of being sacked from the Army.

The executive director of the Australia Defence Association, Neil James, says the low number of cases indicate this is not a major issue for the Army.

"We don't see this as being a widespread problem at all, considering the number of people that serve in Afghanistan each year, that's about one in 600, which is a remarkably low percentage," he said.

Drug testing soldiers has moved from random to routine in the past couple of years, and Mr James says it is surprising troops thought they could avoid detection.

"Well the only thing that's a little bit disquieting about this is now the testing of the troops overseas is near 100 per cent, you wonder how anyone thought they could get away with it," he said.


Sign of boredom

"But steroid use tends to be a sign of boredom and it tends to be a little bit of a competitive thing among young, fit Australians.

"So if you've got the problem in the wider society then you're eventually going to have it in your military. But how they thought they could get away with it is a bit puzzling."

Commentators argue taking steroids does not provide a physical edge in combat, and Mr James says, if anything, the cases have uncovered a vain streak among Defence personnel.

"What you need in combat is physical fitness and endurance fitness and steroids have more to do with muscle tone," he said.

It has been well documented that steroids can sometimes carry the side effect of what is known as 'roid rage'.

But Mr James says he doubts the soldiers would be suffering from those side effects.

"Well you would, wouldn't you, but steroid use that produces rage is generally severe steroid use and without knowing what the random or the 100 per cent testing has uncovered, I suspect that is probably hasn't been major overuse, it's just been to a lesser level," he said.

"So I don't really think the rage would have been too much of a problem and there's lots of ways that would have been uncovered anyway, just in the way that soldiers look after each other and their general behaviour."

Mr James says drug use tends to be more common in general units and not among special forces or commandos.

He says they are busier and more disciplined than an average soldier.

Whats the problem with roid rage - especially in a war zone.
We just very recently uploaded a video of a marine unit which gote themself into a fire fight filmed by the helmet camera.
They had ANA support and one young ANA soldier which the Marines called sparky was about the most gunho soldier I have ever seen
to the point of being completly reckless.
At one stage the platoon comander had to call sparky back when he attempt to flank the Taliban by himself :D his reaction was...WHY THE FUCK NOT!!!
:D

I think some of the marine units could use some steroids :D

whatever you say................



you the kind of dude who would commit a violent crime and go with the  "ROIDZ MADE EM DO IT" defense




overall , steroids make men somewhat more alpha male in terms of competitively, sexually, in the gym you wanna crush weights, aggressive type of stuff you would expect with supraphysiological testosterone levels

...........but this concept of acute "roid rage" where people lose their minds for periods of time in a violent fits of rage and and unbridled aggression, sue to steroids.......is ......ahem............FUCKING BULLSHIT
'



i have been around more steroids and steroid users more then 99.99& of the population.........and its simply comically exaggerated.........i have never seen someone freak out cause they are on steroids

i HAVE witnessed steroids give an insecure douchebag the confidence and the inflated ego to be a bigger douchebag

but no, bruce banner/ jeckel and hyde  type of psychotic ciolent episodes......

You clearly said that steroids do not make one more aggressive in that earlier post.  THis is not true, and you you explained why in this post.  I am not one to blame steroids for any negative behavior, but to say they do not increase aggression is simply not true.

the way we were using "aggressive" in the original context was "would steroids make soldiers more violent and and combative"......to which the answer is no

This was a few years ago, and no he stayed in and only had to attend the meetings.  Someone higher up requested a test on him, it's the only way you can get busted in the military.....if things haven't changed.  If a superior requests a test, they do the draw and it goes to the same lab in cali that the us olympic team uses.....like I say, thats how it used to work, could be different now.  I'm sure there are others one here who know.

testosteron can make you more agressive. why do you think males are more agressive than woman? why do you think the most agressive animal the bull shark also has the highest test levels. see a correlation here maybe ??
