Even if we use your assumptions.

We have a pilot shortage.

Repeat that until you get it. We have a pilot shortage in the military. Yes its worth it. And this is why the military doesn't take advice from a far right wing nut like Tucker.

So both you and the military's solution is to shove a ton of pregnant women into its branches, who will soon be off on maternity leave? Makes perfect sense.

One thing some of you all forget is that the military, well except for the Marines, have always loved to tinker with uniforms. Always meaning at least in the last fifty years.

Seems every flag officer that is in such position, wants to leave their mark in this manner.

Obviously you're too brainwashed to comprehend that Tucker said-

Quote:
"So we've got new hairstyles and maternity flight suits. Pregnant women are going to fight our wars. It's a mockery of the U.S. military," Carlson said on Tuesday.

"While China's military becomes more masculine as it has assembled the world's largest navy, our military needs to become, as Joe Biden says, more feminine, whatever feminine means anymore," he added, as a picture of an Air Force officer modeling the pregnant flight suit appeared next to him on screen.
And you're obviously so ill informed to realize that the current dress for maternity was developed under Trump. And so now 'all of a sudden' Tucker the frat boy takes issue? LOL!! Talk about a partisan dog.

Tucker deserved the rebuke. Way to pee off the military FOX News. Way to pee off professional women, FOX News. Only the brainwashed far righties living in the 50's think Tucker was 'spot on'. I love the way the current republican party just keeps alienating voters, lol. Keep playing stupid games, you'll win stupid prizes.

Every MOS and branch in the military has a shortage of warm bodies.

AF is just being woke and wants to appeal to more women.

In reality, pregnant female pilots are not flying anything, especially the female pilot in the photo because she looks like she is almost full term.

Call me crazy but what kind sissy ass society sends their PREGNANT WOMEN to go to war?
Would you send your pregnant wife to go check out the noise down stair at midnight or you do it yourself?

Wait! Don’t say it because I already know your answer.

Again, you missed the point. It was developed under Trump but Biden turned it into a major issue and played the race and gender card when he spoke on it. My thing is pregnant women in the military at some point have to take time off. Is it really wise to heavily invest in soldiers that are pregnant? Especially if they're 5 or 6 months into their pregnancy? They can't fight in combat, that's for sure. LMAO dude, you're obviously butthurt over Tucker and anyone who isn't a far left nut like yourself. He applauded both men AND women in our military. I watched that episode the night it aired. His point was countries like China are getting stronger by the day because they're not focused on cancel culture's influence on their military. They're focused on providing well trained soldiers. We should be doing the same. And yet Biden is more concerned about maternity suits and suits for new hairstyles. Also Tucker made a point. We live in a day and age where may God help you if you "assume someone's gender."



We have gone off the rails with science and biology which why he made that comment saying what ever is even considered female anymore. You have schools denouncing genders and no longer want to teach about them, unless the other newly discovered 50 other genders are involved. The funny thing is clowns like yourself think Tucker's career is done from this. It's far from it. Unlike you and your CNN cronies, Tucker doesn't cater to one side and isn't afraid to speak his mind.

That article is 18 months old and it includes "some fully qualified pilots", not just drone jockeys.

You were wrong.
