Guyman02:chemical warfare is not as common on the sea as in the field. Special forces and special agents tends to keep beards so as to blend in with the civilian population and ethics of the population to trust the occupying forces e.g Iraq, Afghanistan,and other Islamic countries where beards are common with the civics 3 Likes |

Discipline needs to be maintained in the armed forces. This includes discipline in appearance and grooming of its members. Even in the war front, cleanliness and order is encouraged as much as possible. Officers may keep a moustache if they so desire. My dad still shaves first thing in the morning, old army habit I suppose. 2 Likes |

Some Asian countries allow beards in military tho. Some keep beards for special mission. While the mask and uniformity is the real answer why soldiers don't keep beards. |

Hotfreeze:The type of gas masks widely in use doesn't allow for beards. However, I believe there are new gas mask that are being made specifically for bearded men e.g Sikh soldiers or special forces stationed in the middle East. A clean shave is associated with youth and vitality also uniformity is a large part of uniformed services so everyone has to be the same. Now some reasons for allowing beards might be due to skin condition, religion and blending in. For skin condition you are allowed to keep the beards for 2 weeks and if it grows out full you will be allowed to keep it but with proper trimming. Special forces/ Seals stationed outside of the US especially middle east are allowed to keep beards so they can have easy rapport with the locals nothing scream a foreign soldier like a clean shave. 1 Like |

slim75d: Odysseus ate grass which boosted his libido and aura necessary for the alpha character for sex, yet he had no mustache and gaotee. He is definitely the He-goat personified. Stop looking down on the goat (He is the lady's man), next in line is dog, while the horse is no more than the rapist. That said, the reason they can only keep mustache as high ranking officer is to make then look like a gentle businessman unlike the bushy and rough bearded professor or prophet looks... |
