On the 25th, the Naha Air Base of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force announced that it had dismissed an airman in his 20s from the 9th Air Wing Maintenance and Logistics Group Equipment Unit as a disciplinary measure, effective as of the 25th, for inhaling e-cigarette liquid containing cannabis and eating gummies.
According to the Air Self-Defense Force's Naha Base, the airman consumed e-cigarettes and gummies containing cannabis at a club in Naha City in late August 2024. He explained that an outside individual had recommended them to him, telling him that they were legal and safe. Three days after consuming them, he tested positive for cannabis in a drug test irregularly conducted on personnel, which revealed his involvement.
Lieutenant General Toyoaki Shimoda, commander of Naha Air Base, commented, "We will provide appropriate guidance to our personnel and strive to maintain service discipline and prevent recurrence."
