To quote BBC:
"Between July and October last year, 220 soldiers - including army reservists - tested positive after a compulsory drug test (CDT).

Drugs found in the test were cocaine, ecstasy, cannabis, ketamine, steroids, amphetamine and benzodiazepine.

In January, the MoD said that it did not know how many of these 220 personnel were discharged as a result."
