How pregnant Marine officers can borrow maternity uniforms at no cost

[Sherman A1]

A new Marine Corps pilot program will allow pregnant Marine officers near Quantico, Virginia, to borrow maternity uniforms at no cost ― saving them hundreds of dollars.

Enlisted Marines are given a one-time issue of maternity uniforms for free, but officers are required by law to pay for the uniforms out of pocket.

With the average maternity uniform cost at $500, it can be costly to Marine officers looking to have families.
The pilot program will allow pregnant Marine officers in the national capitol region to make an appointment with the Individual Issue

Facility at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, to pick up the maternity utility uniform, green tunic, short and long-sleeve service blouses, service maternity skirts and slacks and service tapes, according to a March Marine Corps press release.
