I love a comment in today`s Daily Telegraph that during the Falklands War
the Min of Defence regularly sent out batches of porn mags for the troops.
Squaddies got "Fiesta". The officers were given "Men Only" and "Penthouse".

I would have thought the officers would have got play girl considering their backgrounds on the whole.

Great! I am surprised that the troops got anything.
In the obscenity trial brought against Penguin over the publication of Lady Chatterley's Lover, the prosecution case included this masterpiece "whether the novel was something "you would even wish your wife or servants to read"

I recall thinking at the start of our intervention in Afghanistan that one way of combating the 'woman-fearing' Taliban would be to bombard them with porn just to mess with their minds.
