Breast implants saves woman after Hezbollah attack
Tue Aug 15, 8:07 AM ET
JERUSALEM (AFP) - One Israeli woman has received an unexpected boost from her breast implants during the Lebanon war -- the silicone embeds saved her life during a Hezbollah rocket attack, a doctor said.
"This is an extraordinary case, but it's a fact that the silicone implants prevented her from a more serious and deeper wound," Jacky Govrin, of the hospital in Nahariya that treated the woman, told army radio Tuesday.
"The young woman went through surgery two years ago to have a larger chest," he said. "During the war she was wounded in the chest by shrapnel" that got stuck in the implants instead of penetrating further.
The woman did not emerge from her ordeal completely unscathed, however.
"The shrapnel was removed but the implant had to be replaced," Govrin said.

My wife is currently in the O.R. getting implants, right now! Just a tune-up after having the kids. I call it "Service Pack 1 for Wife 2.0."
Before she went in, I told her about this story and said what a good idea it would be to have implants made where the rear part of them (where you can't feel) were made of kevlar.
Tactical teats would be way-cool.

What size are those cups? Just the right size, I'd say.

If your wife has a boob job and you have her walk in front of you in bad neighborhoods, are you a chauvinist?

Course, if your wife has a boob job, you probably shouldn't be taking her with you to the bad neighborhoods in the first place.
