- | Hard numbers for bra sizes are like this: You have the initial diameter of the rib cage (standardized of course) which is usually an even number. Adult sized bras in the USA start at 32 and go up in 2 inch increments.

For Measurements you take the Bra band size (The rib cage diameter) and add the inches from the Cup size (A= 1; B=2; C=3; D=4) to that base number to get the bust measurement. So a 32 with a B cup would be 34in in her measurements. | For Measurements you take the Bra band size (The rib cage diameter) and add the inches from the Cup size (A= 1; B=2; C=3; D=4) to that base number to get the bust measurement.

E cups (aka DD) and all sizes larger cumulatively occur almost just as often as D cups. Still, for the sake of having soldiers who can actually fit into power armor, or a soldier that can actually move without encumbrance I think this should be reclassified as rare. | E cups (aka DD) and all sizes larger cumulatively occur almost just as often as D cups.
