#2 Nah. The American Army was the last service to introduce a preggie uniform. It resisted for a long time. The females wore civilian clothes with their class A name tag. After another round of denial by the Army Uniform Board, the head JAG advised the CoS of the Army that due to the significant number of females deployed in Europe (circa 1980s), that any such female captured out of uniform was not covered by the various Conventions and could be classified as an illegal combatant (which the other side was free to execute as spies et al). Guess who would be blamed? /rhet question. Shazam! A quick meeting of the Army Uniform Board and the authorization of a preggie uniform!

#3 Yeah - I always thought the idea of a maternity BDU was odd (Battle Dress Uniform).
