Since we should ALL be treated the same, then make everyone men and women shave their heads...crew cuts for everyone.

Didn’t we go through this with the afro back in the early 70’s?

It seems to me that when the army did a lot of real work in fighting the enemy on their turf that anyone caught complaining about a hairstyle reg would have been chastised, to say the least.
And I don’t mean to say, ‘in my day...’ what I mean is, what the he double toothpicks does a hairstyle have to do with readiness?

Hate to say it, but there’s no way I’d recommend anyone go into the military right now. It may take more than a change in presidential leadership before that would change. The damage done is immeasurable. It’s not all during this presidency, but a lot of the crap Clinton put in place lasted through two more presidencies without being fixed. Now, it is a social experiment under this president.

The last time I checked military service in the USA was on a volunteer basis. If you don't like it, don't sign up. If you don't like it, don't re-enlist.
We need to end this crap before we destroy the military.

You would end up with this....Private Headkrack
or this.... Sgt Lenny Kravitz
