I remember that in the early 70s. Black soldiers getting “folliculitis” and getting a waiver for shaving.

I was in from 76-84, and I don't recall one instance of a Black officer with folliculitis.

1968 through 1976, here. I was enlisted and didn’t get to hang around officers much. I saw enough of these cases for it to have stuck with me all these years.
