Unfortunately I suspect that unit medics are not all that rigorous in every case about who gets these, particularly when a squadron is on active service in a war zone.
I would also point out Dexadrine IS a AMPHETEMINE!
I would also direct you to some of its more entertaining side effects -
"Central Nervous System
Psychotic episodes at recommended doses (rare), overstimulation, restlessness, dizziness, insomnia, euphoria, dyskinesia, dysphoria, tremor, headache, exacerbation of motor and phonic tics and Tourette's syndrome"

I would NOT EVER get in a aircraft with a user of this stuff nor would I be happy calling in airsupport from someone using this stuff. (Thank god I am a civvie!).
