"Women across the joint force can now take 12 weeks of fully paid maternity leave, Carter told reporters at the Pentagon. The 12-week benefit is double the amount of time for paid maternity leave from when he became defense chief nearly a year ago, he noted."

SPC (Join to see) - The other first world countries offer 6 months to 1 year maternity leave. I too believe that it should be longer than 12 weeks.
