On Americans Tax
Dollars:
How?
Join the Army!
The U.S. Army
has long lured recruits with the slogan "Be All You Can Be," but
now soldiers and their families can receive plastic surgery, including
breast enlargements, on the taxpayers' dime.
The New Yorker
magazine reports in its July 26th edition that members of all
four branches of the U.S. military can get face-lifts, breast
enlargements, liposuction and nose jobs for free -- something
the military says helps surgeons practice their skills.
"Anyone wearing
a uniform is eligible," Dr. Bob Lyons, chief of plastic surgery
at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio told the magazine,
which said soldiers needed the approval of their commanding officers
to get the time off. Between 2000 and 2003, military doctors performed
496 breast enlargements and 1,361 liposuction surgeries on soldiers
and their dependents, the magazine said. The magazine quoted an
Army spokeswoman as saying, "the surgeons have to have someone
to practice on."
