Warning: Clichéd glamour model ‘banter’
A calendar featuring a host of glamour models has landed itself in trouble over accusations it used military weapons and facilities without proper permission.
Hot Shots Calendar raises money for wounded veteran charities from the UK and US with photos of scantily clad women holding, shooting or driving some seriously powerful military ordnance.
Utah National Guard have launched an internal investigation into how the women were allowed onto their base in Draper where they shot automatic rifles and even drove tanks.
Speculations have also risen regarding the involvement of the 19th Special Forces Group who were thanked at the end of the shoot for the 2015 calendar.
Utah National Guard Lt. Col. Steven Fairbourn made the following statement to Fox 13: ‘An investigation was initiated by the Utah National Guard on October 14 to determine potential unauthorized use of military equipment, facilities, and personnel in the Hot Shots 2015 calendar production.
‘Productions of this kind are not in keeping with the values of the Utah National Guard nor its members.’
The money raised by the calendar sales is donated to UK-based charity, Help for Heroes and its US equivalent, the Special Operations Wounded Warrior Foundation.
