Embedded and pregnant New York Times reporter Elizabeth Rubin went to Afghanistan in 2007 to spend two months embedded with US forces. She was four months pregnant, but kept her condition secret as the US Army does not allow pregnant women into combat zones. Elizabeth talks to Matthew Bannister about why she took the decision to go to the front line. Anzac Day Australians will be remembering their war dead this Sunday, Anzac Day.
