I seem to recall some Marines (male) getting courts marshals for appearing in a porno film, a few years back.

The women in the Navy didn't look like that, even airbrushed! My rcruiter once said to me (and I'm paraphraising for decency), "I consider any man that sleeps with a Navy woman just too damn lazy to pleasure himself."
I'm ashamed to admit I dated a few Navy girls, even married one.
As to the Air Farce getting all up in a bunch about this, that's no surprise. These days you can do just about anything you want as a member of the armed services, but you must do it as a private citizen. The minute you wear your uniform or indicate you are in the service you become an official representative of that service and the government. So if she had just done the spread as "Mary Smith" she would have probably gotten off with little or nothing. But doing it as "Sergeant Mary Smith" she was basically revealing state secrets.
But then, Playboy didn't want "Mary Smith" they wanted the "Sergeant" part. |

The issue was she did these erotic poses IN HER UNIFORM
such is a violation of the UCMJ.
Doing that in uniform brings discredit to the military. |

OkaY, but if she had hosted a charity picnic for blind children while in uniform, would that have brought discredit to the military?
And if we say that no, posing for Playboy is much more offensive than hosting a charity picnic, then I again have to wonder about the military's attitude toward Playboy in general. Another poster seemed to suggest that it is actually sold on military bases. Can anyone confirm this? |

| I can't confirm it, but the issue would be further complicated by the fact that the PX's are run by AAFES, which I believe is a separate entity outside the military proper. |

| It was actually sold on the base she worked at and sold out very quickly. I remember hearing this in the interview she did on a TV program. |

| Actually, I thought that Playboy did an annual "Women in Uniform" spread similar to the college one. |

No they wouldnt mind that but your missing the issue entirely. Discredit to the military it is also detracting from discipline. This woman is a Sergeant which means she is in charge of young airmen and airwoman doing a job.
How does it look for her authority and for unit discipline when her men and women go out and see the playboy with her in it?
That creates a negative effect in discipline among the unit.
It's like this, if you see your boss naked in a magazine it will effect you won't it? There'd be gossip at your school about it and you would see he or her in a new light entirely. This can't be allowed to happen in the military. |
