What Sleep Deprivation Costs Your Unit
76% of active duty service members sleep fewer than 7 hours per night. Sleep-deprived individuals perform at the equivalent of legal intoxication after 17 to 19 hours without sleep. Reaction time slows. Decision-making under pressure degrades. These are not wellness concerns. They are readiness deficits.
48% of Army soldiers had a sleep disorder or sleep-related medical diagnosis in a single year. Sleep apnea diagnoses increased 517% between 2005 and 2014. Those sleeping 5 hours or fewer had significantly higher injury incidence. Every injury is a service member off the line.
A sleep-deprived unit is a less ready unit.

The Clinically Validated Solution
A complete sleep readiness protocol. No prescription. No device. No behavioral overhaul.
Over 51 million Hostage Tape mouth tapes have been sold. Trusted by Special Operations human performance programs and elite athletes worldwide.
Hostage Tape users saw a 45.4% increase in deep sleep ratings. Deep sleep is when cortisol resets, cardiovascular repair happens, and the body actually recovers from high-stress service.
84% reported better sleep quality. For service members, that translates to faster recovery, clearer decision-making under pressure, and sustained mission readiness.
78% of Hostage Tape users reported a reduction or complete stop in snoring. Snoring signals a disrupted airway that prevents full recovery. Nasal breathing fixes the root cause.
1. Mouth Tape
The foundation of the entire sleep protocol. Hostage Tape keeps the mouth sealed during sleep, forcing nasal breathing all night. This reduces snoring, increases deep sleep by 45.4%, and lowers cortisol so your service members actually recover. The flexible adhesive stays put through the night but removes cleanly in the morning. No discomfort. No suffocation feeling. Just sealed airways and full recovery between operations.
2. Nose Strips
Nose strips open the nasal passages from the outside, reducing airflow resistance so service members can breathe deeply through the nose all night. Paired with mouth tape, nose strips maximize oxygen intake and make the transition to nasal breathing effortless, even for those with larger builds or deviated septums. Stronger airflow means deeper sleep, faster recovery, and better performance on duty.
3. Nasal Sticks
An all-natural menthol, essential oil, and mint inhaler that helps open up the nose. Service members use it before bed to clear the airway instantly. No drugs, no chemicals. Just breathe it in and feel the difference.
4. Premium Sleep Mask
Light is the enemy of deep sleep. Even small amounts of ambient light suppress melatonin production and reduce time spent in restorative sleep stages. The premium sleep mask blocks 100% of light with a contoured, zero-pressure design that does not touch the eyes. Combined with mouth tape, nose strips, and nasal sticks, the sleep mask completes the full sleep optimization stack, giving your service members every physiological advantage before the next operation.
