I have found that the over the counter natral MELATONIN is a great sleep aid. Your body converts it to seritonin, the chemical that helps you sleep.

Kill people. 3am to 4am is the part of the natural cycles that people are most asleep. This leads to night ops being held at that time.

I sleep. One word: Tranquilisers. I never wake up at 4 am. The earliest was the other week when I woke up at 6.30 for some strange reason. Strangely enough I used to work at 3.30 AM (this was before my tranquilisers). That really started to make me hallucinate. True story...

I know a guy who went about 80+ hours of no sleep. He started hallucinating things and hearing voices.

Well its 1am, and I just woke up. Now what am I going to do all night? This is when games are invented, babies are made, and people buy worthless junk from TV advertising shows.

Respond to useless Posts with a usual useless response.

I am usually a third shifter. So 0400 ='s 1800 for normal people.

After so many hours awake, a person can and will enter a hypnotic state where His unconscious mind. Will literally start manifesting itself onto conscious thought.(leading to some very interesting stimuli.)

Thats why the military likes to deprive you of sleep. Its easier to program you that way.
