Nothing funnier than a dude who looks like he flunked out of Aryan Brotherhood MC tryouts lecturing others on their ‘unprofessional appearance’

You can have 40 tattoos but not one beard .
Tattoos in the military are common and have been for decades. In my 20 years I never got a tattoo only because I was just not interested. My dad had several old school blue ink tattoos and my son has a few. Bot are retired navy veterans.
During g my entire 20 years, beards were not allowed unless you had a chit because of bad skin, which applied mostly to black guys. If you served aboard a Navy ship, you would have had at some point assigned a fire locker and had to wear a gas mask. The beard only stopped a good seal, therefore they were banned navy wide.
Beards were reinstated during the Biden years I believe and Hegseth was out before that time started.
In my opinion, beards do not look good while in uniform.
My son in law couldn't join the Air Force at first because of his tattoos (he has sleeves on both arms) But the Army took him. They take anybody
And he's still an improvement on the guy who disappeared without telling anyone.
The bar has been set so low, that simply making common sense points is now an improvement.
LOL
I agree. von Steuben made that clear enough. No deprogramming necessary
I think that Hegseth thinks that he is closer in attitude and temperament to the common soldier to the point where he and Trump can command loyalty from the troops, so that if it comes to the generals or Trump, they will choose Trump. That is the message that I think he wished to convey.
