Dang! Glad I do not use these products!
Guam raised the age for buying tobacco from 18 to 21, and military shops have been ordered to follow suit.
The law went into effect on Monday, and Navy Secretary Richard Spencer relayed the order in a message on Tuesday, according to Stars and Stripes.
Spencer said the restriction applies to all Joint Region Marianas facilities, which include Andersen Air Force Base and Naval Base Guam.
He directed service members, dependents and civilian workers who are under 21 to refrain from possessing, distributing and using tobacco products — including smokeless tobacco and electronic cigarettes — on shore-based installations, but the rule doesn’t apply to Navy vessels and areas exclusively under federal control.
