(For one thing, the implants are probably very easy to rupture, under SEAL conditions. If a woman were to become a SEAL, she would probably be required to have any implants removed, just for safety reasons.)

On the other hand, if you were feeling self-sacrificial you could fill them with all sorts of interesting and useful substances.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They could be weapons of mass destruction!

In Freudian news, that really wanted to be mass distraction.

If I only had a brain...

SNERK.

I'm imagining a SEAL with a water bra full of plastique.

Lieutenant Manly: "Ensign, you've changed!"
Ensign Chick: "Yes, and in ten seconds, so will that bridge!"
Bridge: BOOM!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Except you would have to cut yourself open to get at these substances! I mean, I used to hide caramels inside the underside of my bra, and I could hide a lot of caramels, but that was outside of the skin, and only required the sensation of cold fingers to retrieve.

This is like the non-usefulness of a certain model of bra-holster, for a handgun. You can only wear it if you are a C cup or larger, and to get at the actual weapon, you have to rip off your shirt a la Hulk Hogan.

I figure when you rip your shirt off, you startle the bad guy, thus giving you extra time to shoot. Link to the bra-holster?

You Americans. Always discounting the value of a good kamikaze attack.

Or you can have a tube come forward through the nipple, for squeezing out the plastique.

Either way.

Yeah, that's why I was requiring "self-sacrificial." You could have, like, an external fuse.

I suppose that'd be distracting to your opponent, anyway. Though you'd have to make sure you practiced shirt-ripping.

I read about it in a paper magazine several years ago. (In the context of an article about the marketing of handguns to women.) I think, perhaps due to the ridicule of all and sundry, the model was probably retired onto the scrapheap of incredibly silly ideas.

Some of us don't see the point of installing extra ductwork in our milkmakers.

See why they won't let you into the combat special forces?
