Amphetamines also have Support Our Troops cred. Since at least WWII, basically everyone fielding soldiers under conditions where caffeine just wasn’t enough alertness aid used them. (Apparently the Germans had a concept called ‘tanker’s chocolate’, a delicious mix of calorie-rich chocolate and activitytastic amphetamines… Normally field rations sound pretty dreadful; but I’m curious about that one.)
