Up to 300 soldiers drug-tested after three arrests were made over fears of Ketamine dealing
All soldiers in the Royal Armoured Corps Training Regiment, stationed in Dorset, were tested for the drug
AN entire regiment were drug-tested after three soldiers were arrested over fears they were dealing Ketamine.
The Armour Centre in Dorset went into lockdown on Monday after the busts last week.
Sources said all 300 in the Royal Armoured Corps Training Regiment were tested after suspicions they were partying over the weekend.
There were rumours at least one of the men had been dealing the mind-bending horse tranquilliser to comrades.
Unconfirmed reports from the base claim when urine tests started around 15 immediately admitted drug use.
An insider said: “People on the base have been suspicious that several troops were dealing after they came back acting high the weekend before last. There was a smaller drugs test last week.
“The soldiers thought they had got away with it so went on a weekend bender but when they paraded on Monday some were physically sick.
“Top Brass were seething so decided to teach the whole training regiment a lesson and drug test the lot.”
A source said the three men were arrested for “possession of a controlled substance” at Bovington camp.
Prince Harry trained at the tanks and heavy armour base.
If found guilty of drug use the soldiers face being kicked out the Army.
An Army spokesperson said: “We can confirm that three soldiers were arrested on drugs offences.”
