Supervised injection sites in the US don't provide offramps, not unless they require as a condition of use regular counseling. Europe had both kinds, but American harm minimization advocates imported the no-strings-attached variety while using the data for the counseling-required sites to sell them to policy makers.

To carry that over to the slot machines, maybe the slot machines should have required some sort of access ID so users could be tracked and addicts identified for intervention (easier today than 20+ years ago) as a condition for continued use. That might be kind of tough in a military environment, though, given the emphasis on morality and potential repercussions if you're not diligent enough to hide your dirty laundry from your CO; sort of like why commercial pilots don't see mental health professionals.
