> Since when should we accommodate the Sikhs when it comes to the US Armed Forces? Why should we change our rules for a handful of people?

The Canadian Armed Forces and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have accommodated Sikhs and their needs without difficulty.

Again, another commonwealth country. I still feel like its the wrong path for the USA to follow a British example. But I could be swayed if there is a compelling reason to think they have earned it by demonstrating absolute loyalty to America. But never just as a multicultural sop to political correctness.

Somehow, they need to learn to hold a Kabar knife, and to feel the same way about it as they do their curved one.

The Canadian Armed Forces are a joke. There are only 65,000 active duty personnel and the head of the Canadian Army has said that they will have to take a year off from operational duties because of Afghanistan.

How may Sikhs are in the Canadian Armed Forces?
