(18,761 posts)I quote: "Actions involving bodily fluids need to be handled in private." This is and was my opinion. I did not mention any regulation in post #36.
Were I a woman, in the service and breastfeeding, I would verify that doing so in public was okay before I did so.
Aside from that, the photo clearly shows both moms with all buttons open on their ABU shirts. Part of the AFI I referenced also explains that those wearing the uniform have as a duty, setting a good example for others. That's why it's a good idea to know for sure before taking a chance on setting a bad example.
Comparing... I'm not comparing any fluid to any other. I'm not discussing earwax or pus from a blister. There are those personal functions that required partially undressing and, lacking information to the contrary, it is wise to be informed before acting.
