Reserve officer in fight with Army for owning marijuana dispensary
A major in the Army Reserve is in a dispute with the Army over his ownership of a marijuana dispensary in New York. The major, who was investigated and formally reprimanded, had his promotion to lieutenant colonel rescinded. He claims his business venture does not violate military regulations.
His lawyer expects the issue to go to court. Further details on the case are available from the source, including the relevant military regulations and policies that prohibit service members from possessing or distributing illicit drugs, even in states where they are legal.
