In 1941, longtime Coca-Cola leader Robert Woodruff said that any person in uniform should get a bottle of Coke for 5 cents, wherever he is and whatever it costs the Company.

During WWII, a special group of Coca-Cola employees called Technical Observers supervised the shipment and operation of 64 complete bottling plants that distributed over 5 billion bottles of Coca-Cola to servicemen and women.

In 1943, General Dwight D Eisenhower sent an urgent cable to Coca-Cola requesting shipment of materials for 10 bottling plants. During the war many people enjoyed their first taste of the drink, and when peace finally came, the foundations had been laid for Coca-Cola to do business overseas.

Coca-Cola was invented in 1885 by John Pemberton, a pharmacist from Atlanta, Georgia, who concocted the original formula in his backyard. Pemberton’s recipe contained cocaine

As early as 1891, some Americans spoke out against the inclusion of addictive ingredients like opium and cocaine.

The drink's name refers to two of its original ingredients: coca leaves, and kola nuts (a source of caffeine).

From 1900 – 1929 opinion turned against cocaine, but Coke continued to use trace amounts of cocaine and “spent” coca leaves to maintain its flavor and trademark. Today Coca-Cola uses caffeine rather than cocaine. (SO THEY SAY)

Does Coke Still Have Cocaine in it? The current formula of Coca-Cola remains a trade secret, but we can confirm that a 1988 New York Times article reported the following: In a telephone interview from Coca-Cola’s Atlanta headquarters, Randy Donaldson, a company spokesman, said, “Ingredients from the coca leaf are used, but there is no cocaine in it and it is all tightly overseen by regulatory authorities.” Besides producing the coca flavoring agent for Coca-Cola, Stepan extracts cocaine from the coca leaves, which it sells to Mallinckrodt Inc., a St. Louis pharmaceutical manufacturer that is the only company in the United States licensed to purify the product for medicinal use. Thus, we can confirm cocaine can be used for medicine and the Coca plant has a long history with Coca Cola. With that in mind, Coke is a brand, and we don’t want to confirm or deny if they currently use “spent” Coca Leaves without an official source to cite.

I wouldnt doubt though that qualified government labs and research centers have analyzed the content of Coca-Cola and know what its formula is.

I can't remember how many Jack Daniel and Coca Cola per night in Nam myself...how goods you memory?

Government probably knows as the company is admitting Spent Cocaine leaves are still been used in it's secret Coca Cola's ingredients.
Surely you don't trust your government any more than any sane person here would "0"...
Myself prior to posting I was placed on the NZ Navy Rum list a year and a half before that posting to Nam.
Each day I had to parade before an Officer and drink my TOT of Navy Rum, every single day.
Also we were ordered not to drink the water in Saigon we were ordered to drink booze instead....dunno what you were on mate!!!

I think u.s. epa maintains an emission inventory submitted by any manufacturer who wants a permit to operate or install new equipment. osha digs in too to help protect employees inside, ncessary to respond to accidental spills erc. material data safety sheets are required by safety officers reporting to osha and epa. big brother is watching.

as far as nam goes, i got lucky and marines sent me to kodiak alaska instead. the navy gave up the operationa there so i didnt reenlist.

I don't doubt they would know, but that doesn't mean they would mention anything that didn't suited not to mention.
In Vietnam 1967/68 one 40 oz Bottle of Jack Daniels cost US$1-52cents (one dollar and fifty two cents) in the American PX any servicemen could buy and did!!

All governments, armies whatever , do whatever they determine necessary, for example it was admitted that at least part of Air America Operation was funded from the sales of Opium.
There is not much that government across the globe wont do; pretty much all the time they play politics with the truth.
There is something i've never figured out. During the American Civil War Troops on both sides stood x many yards apart, and simply shot each other, how bloody stupid...it defies logic and reason that any human being would willingly or could be, that stupid, thousands died...frustrated

WEll, it's a common enough human trait to forget our sins and the sins of our fathers ... but as your book tells

'The sins of the father shall be visited upon their sons ...'

Until we're ALL able to admit our own errors well, as the Hindus put it 'The wheel goes round again ...'

HexagonKeySet: Better caption ...

blah blah blah Really dude! Get a grip. Read up on history before talking sheet. stop bloviating and do at least a little research instead on things you talk about.

“American Indians suffered horribly is indisputable. But whether their suffering amounted to a"holocaust," or to genocide, is another matter.....

the most important reason for the Indians’ catastrophic decline—namely, the spread of highly contagious diseases to which they had no immunity. This phenomenon is known by scholars as a"virgin-soil epidemic"; in North America, it was the norm.

The most lethal of the pathogens introduced by the Europeans was smallpox, which sometimes incapacitated so many adults at once that deaths from hunger and starvation ran as high as deaths from disease; in several cases, entire tribes were rendered extinct. Other killers included measles, influenza, whooping cough, diphtheria, typhus, bubonic plague, cholera, and scarlet fever. Although syphilis was apparently native to parts of the Western hemisphere, it, too, was probably introduced into North America by Europeans.

About all this there is no essential disagreement. The most hideous enemy of native Americans was not the white man and his weaponry, concludes Alfred Crosby,"but the invisible killers which those men brought in their blood and breath." It is thought that between 75 to 90 percent of all Indian deaths resulted from these killers.
