“A top US commander is threatening soldiers who fall pregnant on active service with jail.”
“Under the new policy, troops expecting a baby face court martial and a possible prison term – and so do the men who made them pregnant.”
“And the rule applies to married couples at war together, who are expected to make sure their love lives do not interfere with duty.”
