How disgusting is this?

An Air Force staff sergeant who posed nude for Playboy magazine has been relieved of her duties while the military investigates, officials said Thursday.

In February's issue, hitting newsstands this week, Michelle Manhart is photographed in uniform yelling and holding weapons under the headline "Tough Love." The following pages show her partially clothed, wearing her dog tags while working out, as well as completely nude.

"This staff sergeant's alleged action does not meet the high standards we expect of our airmen, nor does it comply with the Air Force's core values of integrity, service before self, and excellence in all we do," Oscar Balladares, spokesman for Lackland Air Force Base, said in a statement.

Manhart told Playboy that she considers herself as standing up for her rights.

"Of what I did, nothing is wrong, so I didn't anticipate anything, of course," Manhart, 30, told The Associated Press. "I didn't do anything wrong, so I didn't think it would be a major issue."

Manhart, who is married with two children, joined the Air Force in 1994, spending time in Kuwait in 2002. She trains airmen at Lackland.

Come on, hot, 30 year old moms! How many hotter 19 year olds that have spent the last seven grand of their trust funds on fake boobs and collagen injections are getting rejected for Playboy so some 30 year old mom can get some time on the glossies because her Uncle Gary molested her when she was eight and she's never "felt pretty"??

There are way too many 'eager beavers' who can't even rent a car to give so much attention to someone with this much baggage:

But then again, Playboy has subsisted on their own contraversy since its inception, so maybe this will move some issuse for them. Or at lease some knuckles.
