Germany's military is rolling out a line of maternity uniforms for pregnant soldiers following successful field tests last year.
Germany's defense ministry says some 80 volunteers tested a range of uniforms as well as underwear and tights, and their feedback will be considered.
It said 'our goal in the end is to buy uniforms that best meet the requirements of the users.'

Were the field tests of the uniforms or of the females’ ability to fall pregnant?

Tactical maternity wear?!
What the crap! Stretchy Kevlar? Special hidden place to hold a flashlight? Camo covered edition of ‘What To Expect When Expecting’? Combo laser sight and folic acid dispenser?

Our military now has female combat troops, as ridiculous and counter-productive and counter-logical as that is. I can't imagine the Euros would be far behind in implementing similar PC insanity.

In the event of a war, would the unborn babies receive combat pay?

Apparently, if a picture speaks a thousand words, two pictures speak a million words.
I did not realize before now that it is an exponential equation...

The Nazis may have been the boogeymen of the world and the personification of evil, but they had the sharpest uniforms of any army every.

I disagree. I think the U.S. Marines’ Blue Dress uniform has it all over anything the Nazis had.
