[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the issue is that they didn't ask permission before posing for this picture. The military is sensitive about the uniform and what it conveys. They have strict rules about where you can and can't wear your uniform. I've dated military guys who were not allowed to drink in uniform, and in some work situations, they are not allowed to wear BDU's (camoflauge) because of the message it sends. (in contrast, the eiffel tower is guarded by soldiers in BDU's with semi-automatic weapons.) I suspect the military is not anti-breast-feeding.[/quote] [b]Does the military provide pumping rooms for enlisted soldiers, not just officers? Does military insurance cover lactation consultants?[/[/b]quote] Yes and yes. Again the uniform is part of it. There are many, many things you cannot (or should not) do in a "working uniform", posing for a breast feeding photo is obviously one of them.[/quote]
