One of President Clinton's first acts after taking office in 1993 was to lift a ban on abortions at U.S. military hospitals, giving servicewomen access to a procedure that had been available to civilians for 20 years.

Two years later, the new Republican-controlled Congress reinstituted the ban, which remains in effect today as scores of soldiers become pregnant on the battlefield.

Even in cases of rape and incest, military health insurance doesn't cover the procedure, which costs $325 to $650 in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, according to the Planned Parenthood Federation.
