No gun required


Miss Israel has been given permission not to carry her assault rifle during service in the Israeli army because she says it bruises her legs.

Reigning beauty queen Yael Nezri, a private who recently completed basic training, says the bruises are making it difficult for her to model in photo shoots.

The Jerusalem Post reports Ms Nezri, 18, has been granted an exemption by her commanders for her two-year army stint.

I'm sure the other soldiers wouldn't mind carrying her other supplies as well.

In Israel, a 2 year army service is mandatory for ALL citizens at her age.
