Blooper? Paper towels and women in the German military

We do not have a photo, sorry.
 
The website showed a roll of paper towels and something that looked like two doors.

The caption said women have diverse career opportunities in the German military.

Apparently, this was the roll-out of the latest recruitment campaign aimed at increasing the number of women in the German military.

Social media loved it.

What, a career as a cleaning lady?

Under the first female defense secretary!

The ad agency that developed the campaign mumbled about a programming error, and the German defense department pledged to actually review material before it goes live in the future.
