B. Abortion is 100% banned even in cases of rape and fetal deformities. C. Emergency contraceptive and morning after pills banned. Just got to love those right wing nut jobs.

It's not about 17 year old servicewomen not being able to get Plan B. It's about servicewomen in general - whether they're 17, 27, or 50 - not being able to get Plan B at military facilities. If you're stationed in Korea (or any of the many other places where we have a military presence), where do you think you go to get your medical needs met? On-base, to the pharmacy. And if the pharmacy doesn't carry Plan B, because it's not required to - well, you're just out of luck. Eric - you missed the entire point of the article.

If you are in the military you might be living in any of the following places: Germany Italy Korea Japan Spain Iraq Afghanistan Kuwait Kyrgyzstan the good ol' US of A and a whole bunch more!!! And 17 is the minimum age requirement for enlistment, (though it requires consent of the parents). Try reading a newspaper sometime. Eric - - you're dumb.

Last time I checked 18 was the minimum age requirement for enlistment. Oh, maybe the folks with home lives so bad that they actually get their parent's consent to enter the military early are joining up before 18 years of age? Is this how they are getting in so young and innocent? If you are under 18 and in the military, what country do you live in? Last time I checked 18 was the minimum age requirement for enlistment.
