Many female enlisted have used pregnancy to get out of their enlistment contract
After many years in the military and during war time I never knew of any. Served with a lot of exemplary female personnel. On Deployment, getting shot at, too.
Many men have used abortion to get out of their fatherhood responsibilities
Dwell on that for a while
Didn’t say they weren’t good people. But the military life isn’t for everyone.
During 15 month XO tour on a DDG with 60 female enlisted we had one pregnancy a month, for a 25% unplanned turnover.
This isn’t counting the ones who reported onboard on a Monday and were gone by Wednesday due to pregnancy. Just facts as I experienced them.
