It isn't legal and even no one sell it for Military persons. Online sellers have clearly mentioned on their websites. Learn more about Kratom here: https://kratomguides.com/

It's not legal to use in the Air Force I saw in a Goodfellow article. This was in the article too:
"Derived from a tree, it is typically used for its varying stimulant and sedative effects, depending on the dosage. It is usually sold as crushed leaves, powder, extract or capsules. Most users ingest Kratom by smoking it or soaking it in tea. It is an addictive drug, and there have been several cases of addicts experiencing psychotic symptoms, to include hallucinations, delusion and confusion."

Why would you want to use that?

I don't know how reliable this is: https://www.opss.org/prohibited-department-defense

I would not mess with either one of those. It sounds like kratom isn't legal in the military.
