How about we don’t expect black men to permanently give up their facial hair because of a fucking job.
Yeah, I'm down. Readiness doesn't need a razor shave, as evidenced by our Special Forces in the Middle East.
Shaving was because of gas masks. The mask needs rubber-on-skin contact to make an airtight seal, and a beard prevents that from happening. If there’s a threat of chemical warfare, shaving chits get revoked.
Yeah modern SCBAs don't rely on half-face masks anymore.
