Um, what if the male is shore based, civilian even? A married couple who’ve been trying to conceive for some time....?
Are they implying that all the pregnancies are due to shipboard dalliances?
If so, then I agree with you. If not....
That is how I understood it.
All female sailors take a pregnancy test prior to deployment. Problem is, this still leaves about a 30 day or so window after they've taken the test and before they deploy when they can get pregnant.
