It is CG policy to discourage the use of all forms of tobacco products and to protect people from exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, unsanitary conditions created by the use of spit tobacco, and the potential addiction to nicotine products. The use of any tobacco product in public detracts from a sharp military appearance and is discouraged. Where conflicts arise between the rights of non-nicotine users and nicotine users, the rights of the non-user will prevail.
