Wow! It’s just like Junior ROTC – short skirts, high heels, bad jackets, and scrunchies. My grandmother would take issue with how long each girl’s stride is. She would want to tie a scarf around their ankles to train them to take teensy steps. Perhaps if I forward her this photo she will leave me alone about my posture.

One wonders if the Ukrainian military is selecting its female members on criteria other than strictly skills and physical fitness.

The hair, too… with the exception of one girl who appears to have a short cut, I don’t think the long, flowy ponytails would cut it in the U.S. military… nor, if memory serves, would the lack of pantyhose.

I find this photo rather delightful! Personally, I am much more authoritative wearing stilettos than a pair of sensible court shoes.

I think some of them may have also modified the length of their skirt. Hope they’re not going out on maneuvers in those, you could get quite a cold breeze.

It’s the Star Trek school of appropriate military wear for women!

First Combat Modeling Battalion?

Hell, lets invade. And surrender. I hope they torture :).

I for one welcome our new Ukrainian Overlords!

I’ve seen a girl do a side kick with high heels……about groin high…. you don’t want to be there. It sucks when she pulls the heel out…. of the heel. Poor dumb misbegotten sole.

Assault Squadron Four of the Seventeenth Fetish Brigade conducts maneuvers.

Sorta a good sign — apparently they’re being used as a recruiting tool. Ukraine must be moving towards being an all-volunteer force.

Next month they will all be in Vogue.

I’m just so happy that all of these lovely girls found a career different than being a mail order bride or a sex tourism site.
I’ve linked to you in my blog! Go look!

They don’t fight in this uniform any more than US women soldiers fight in their dress uniforms; and on that subject a 3 inch stiletto heel is very sexy, – as can be even a 1.5 to 2 inch kitten stiletto!

These women could be from the Intelligence branch and one can imagine that they would get pretty good results when interrogating males; a stiletto heel and a pointed toe used on a certain pair of vulnerable and external male glands can be a very good inducement to ‘spill the beans’ as well as to spill other fluids!

I was once at a dinner party with a women psychologist who worked as an advisor and trainer with the forces specialising in interrogation techniques and also how to resist them. I asked her what the secret was to getting men to talk who were trained to resist, she laughed and said not much, “with men you just kick them in the balls a couple of times and perhaps step on one and start to crush it and they’ll tell everything they know”! She further opined that females found this easier to carry out than the average non psychopathic male and that the male ‘subject’ would actually be more likely to give in to a female particularly if the female was dressed in an attractive feminine fashion in either normal office attire or a dress uniform with skirt and pumps or knee boots. The humiliation apparently adds to the effect with the female also reinforcing the fear that he may no longer be able to enjoy women like her ever again. She suggested that pointed toes, platforms and stiletto heels in particular would be efficient instruments, – feminine and yet brutal. Males are more ready to believe that a woman would actually go through with the threat to effectively castrate them when applying pressure with her heel than they would with a male!

Thank you Manolo, Verka was just what I needed to brighten my day!!
