I hope you're not referring to the 46 person study that states: *Our participants were not representative of the general population

There are other studies that show the same thing. One of the most recent is the one done at University of Pennsylvania

This was actually the study I was thinking of. I don't believe I've read any from the military now that I've checked, but I wouldn't be surprised if their conclusion was based on lack of sleep due to the military giving Dexedrine to pilots for alertness on long missions (which is to be expected; lack of sleep and not eating is not a safe way to use stimulants)
