In reply to the discussion: Martha McSally: Women in the military get pregnant to "skirt" deployment [View all]maxrandb
(15,193 posts)32. Great point about the FCP, but I'm more interested
in McSally's plan and her take on what we do with the male military member who falls off a ladder cleaning their gutters, drags themselves over 150 feet of gravel because they wrecked their crotch rocket, blows out their knee playing pick-up basketball, gets arrested for DUI, drunk in public, disorderly conduct or domestic violence.
Those are much more common occurrences than a women getting pregnant.
I guess McSally would just say losing male troops to medical and legal issues was just "the cost of doing business".
The fact that McSally doesn't have the same attitude towards pregnancy tells us all we need to know about what type of "officer" she is.
BTW-does she have children? Did she resign her commission when she got pregnant?
