 Aussie Navy Funds Augmentation The Australian navy is enticing female recruits by covering the costs of breast augmentation surgery. No, not to be used as personal flotation devices in case of emergency; the benefits are reserved for female sailors who suffer psychological complexes due to their bust size. Each boob job costs $10,000, the funds of which come from Aussie taxpayers. “Defence Force officials claim the surgery is justified,” Australia’s Herald Sun reported. “Some women in the services need bigger breasts to address ‘psychological issues.’” Until now, they probably haven’t received too many complaints from male colleagues, but after the information was leaked today, complaints are sure to come rolling in. Taxpayers down under will no doubt begin expressing their disappointment… and the navy could get a lot of calls from interested women! The Australian government isn’t the first to back up cosmetic surgery. In the spring, Trend Hunter featured Lebanon’s liposuction loans and last month featured the government funded sex-change surgeries in Brazil.

A top plastic surgeon, Kourosh Tavakoli, said the navy had paid for two officers, aged 25 and 32, to have breast enlargement surgery at his private clinic. Mr Tavakoli said the women were not injured and claimed to be suffering "psychological" problems.
"I've had two female navy officers who've got the navy to pay for breast augmentation for psychological reasons," he said. "I know for a fact the two patients claimed it back on the navy. They know it was breast augmentation and they (the navy) pay for it. There's no breast augmentation that I know of for medical purposes."
