Certain units will relax grooming standards in the M.E., mainly SO I'M, bit I've seen motor pool guys with longer hair and beards. For some reason, our military leadership seems to think it helps us blend in. When I was in Iraq, my EOD unit all had long hair and beards. I tan real easy, and get dark when I do, so I looked like a local national.
sincewhen have they allowed soldiers to keep long hair? That is just so dumb.
