The More Big Guns the Better 

Bigger breasts offered as perk to U.S. soldiers:

The U.S. Army has long lured recruits with the slogan "Be All You Can Be," but now soldiers and their families can receive plastic surgery, including breast enlargements, on the taxpayers' dime.

The New Yorker magazine reports in its July 26th edition that members of all four branches of the U.S. military can get face-lifts, breast enlargements, liposuction and nose jobs for free -- something the military says helps surgeons practice their skills.

I know the Army likes big guns, but I thought they meant Howitzers, not breasts. I suppose if you're in the Navy you won't need a life jacket any more if your ship goes down. Will they install machine guns in there too... a la Austin Power's Fem Bots? Hmmm... so many possibilities.
