In the National Guard drug testing can be a nightmare especially with larger units. Everyone assembles for first formation. Just before end of formation drug testing is announced. Guards are at the door. No matter what training is planned all are tested, not a random sample. Usually takes half a day and throws plans for the two day drill off schedule.

We did random testing. Except in Turkey, I got a tag about every 18 months.

We had to do a drug test over again because the administrator could not be a SPC(P). I also had to pee for three straight 10%s which is like a 1/1000 chance.

MAJ Ken Landgren I was selected for 6 "random" urinalysis samples in 2016 here at the Missile Defense Agency. I am doubtful of the true "randomness" of the selection process. Now, I am on pain management for chronic back pain, but they wont let me identify up front that I take NORCO (Opiod). I have to "fail" first then explain it. Because that is likely gonna go my way.

MSgt Stephen Council - I think 6 random urinalysis in a row is like 1 in 1,000,000 probability. You got hosed.
