#3 I've heard, but don't know for fact, that DOD will give you a free pair if you are active duty. Rationale is that helps keep hours and proficiency up for surgical staff.

#4 There was a big stink about that 18 months ago so the DOD rules are : if the woman is active duty and buys the implants herself, the base hospital will do the surgery for free. That way, the doctors at the military hospital get the experience, and the DOD does not buy the implants - thereby cutting down on the congressional "outrage".

#5 Shieldwolf,

That seems reasonable to me. No civilian insurance plan pays for those. Reconstructive surgery such as post-mastectomy care is an exception, of course.

#9 Ummm... DOD hospitals will definitly do reductions, as a military neccessity.
As odd as it seems, having smaller boobies can be construed as a military "good thing". Say, like being able to run, without the risk of giving yourself a black eye, or having to wrap yourself in about three layers of ace bandages... and the boulder-holders for women with... ummm, a generous endowment and a small rib-cage are... umm, hard to find and expensive when you do, not to speak of the long-term damage to the shoulders and back.
I was told that reduction surgery as a military neccessity was on the house, and so was reconstructive--- after all, it would keep skilled plastic surgeons interested and up to date, but purely aesthetic implant surgery... best have a really convincing rationale for that.
Really.
Please don't ask me why I know all this.
