Facial Hair Petition Gains Momentum After SMA Tells Force 'You Will Not Have a Beard'

Thanks for sharing this update on Army appearance standards SSG (Join to see)! I have no problem with beards if they short and well groomed. I do have an issue with women and ponytails as it could negatively impact certain MOS’s...just my two cents

GENs Hood, Benning, Bragg, Lee, Gordon, A.P. Hill, Pickett, Polk, Meade (all of whom have bases named after them), JEB Stuart, Grant, Burnsides, Hancock, Williams, Greene, Ames, Crook, Hazen, McLellan, Sherman, Scott, Lyon, Rosecrans, and Thomas all agree:

Beards are unprofessional

A clean shave tells a lot about a man.
