I read a book about the Korean war once and it said that the American military camps were DRY but there was a remarkable amount of medicinal alcohol supplied. Honestly I dotnt think it is much of a defence of H to say that he could not be using alcohol in Afghanistan because of the fact that the country was officially dry, for one thing he wasnt there very long, and for another Im pretty darn sure he was able to get hold of a drink or two, at least a tot on Christmas morning.
