So depending on the women they get on there, it might turn less into a military vessel, more into a breeding facility...

It all gets pushed under the rug when the men put on a wig.

the other half that don't get pregnant and actually deploy get retasked with cushy TOC, MWR, and DFAC jobs within the first few weeks in country. They never go on actual missions to do their jobs. My third truck's gunner was a mechanic from another unit who got loaned out to us to fill a slot because our female 'soldier' got moved to the TOC.

That sounds like a blessing in disguise. Do you really want to depend on women when shit hits the fan and in life of death situations? I sure as as fuck don't.

IDK what kind of ship this is, but are they going to surface from a 6 month deployment when a woman gets pregnant?
