| In the past the military turned a blind eye to prostitution. |
While I was deployed with NATO peacekeepers to Bosnia, a number of female soldiers stationed nearby were court-martialed for prostitution. The military was quite aggressive in their prosecution.
The soldiers were all acquitted at courts-martial. They used the same defense: Each of them denied accepting money for sex. They said that they simply sold condoms for $100 apiece and then provided sex for free.
After they were acquitted, they were immediately charged with (and convicted of) breaking General Order # 1 for U.S. soldiers in the former Yugoslavia, an order which, among other prohibitions, requires deployed soldiers to abstain from sexual relations while in-theater.
They're all still at the Mannhaus. |
Whoa. Very interesting. |

| Well, there are plenty of soldiers in the Mannhaus that they can date, if they can get away with it. |

Interesting definition you have of it. I wonder if the federal government's using the same definition.

I'd also love to know where you pulled this from. |
If Playboy and Penthouse are pornography than National Geographic is too. |

| The French had the right idea. BMC (Bordel Militaire Control�/Bordel Mobile de Campagne) translated as Controlled Military Brothel/Mobile Campaign Brothel. Brothels run by the military where the whores are tested and controlled. An outbreak of disease can be tracked back to the source and eliminated. They had them in the Algerian War, don�t know about now though. Soldiers overseas want to get their end away. Banning the problem just pushes it underground. |
Yes, and the US supported brothels in Japan, Japan did the comfort woman thing, the whole America Town thing outside of Busan... the Nazis used Jews at whores, the Russians had them, too. Selling women, trading women, and keeping women under the guise of "men need a release during war" is nothing new. |
