[Army Air Corps]

I see no fault whatsoever in that garment.

[allmendream]

Because they wanted to round up all the women they could lay hands on from Ireland, England, and France that looked like THAT?

[NormsRevenge]

makes ya wonder how granny ever got by in the Big One with standard issue..

[lack-of-trust]

I know the story is fake, I am just here for the pictures.

[RichInOC]

Well, of course they do!

[Buckeye McFrog]

actually, if you talk with female members of our military, one of their most common gripes is the standard issue underwear

[BJClinton]

This requires some serious investigating.

[a fool in paradise]

That is a safety feature. She might’ve gotten whiplash otherwise.

[dog breath]

Greatest recruitment incentive I have ever seen!!!!!!

[Constitution Day]

Haha!!

[csmusaret]

Jubtabulous. Is that the same thing as Hooterific?

[allmendream]

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the Jubtaboulous you grabe.

“Beware the Jubtabulous, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub birds, and shun
The frumious Bander snatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought —
So rested he by the JubJub tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jubtaboulous, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

“And, has thou slain the Jubtabulous?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!’
He chortled in his joy.

[Constitution Day]

Excellent! Ping to #53, gentlemen.

[Ramius]

Jubtabulous!

yah know... it’s not every day you get to be there when a brand new word is born. [snif] It’s just so... magical. They’re so cute when they’re little. So innocent and full of promise...

[danamco]

They would have real problems if their own Anita Ekberg had been enlisted!!!

[Slings and Arrows]

There is a G-d. And He's a guy.

[Miss Behave]

Uff da!

[martin_fierro]

The Swedish armed forces have been hit by a major equipment problem, according to reports. Flimsy military brassieres are unable to stand up to the strains imposed when female Swedish troops perform "rigorous exercises", routinely bursting open or even catching fire - so forcing busty young conscripts to hurriedly strip off in the field.
