Huh. I was stationed at Redstone Arsenal, AL in 1994, and we had a sergeant major who wore the turban and had the beard. I never thought twice about it. Very cool guy, too.

Yeah, I was there too. That SGM presented me with an award. I still did not like the look. Accommodations to various groups will balkanize the Army. If you don't or can't conform to regulations then don't join. Loss of a few Shieks or any other group would make no difference to the overall effectiveness of the Army.
