Soldiers with skin conditions like razor bumps will no longer be granted permanent medical waivers that allow them to grow beards and could be kicked out of the Army if they are not clean shaven.

    Shaving profiles allow for minimal amounts of facial hair. Like 1/4 inch or so. Gas masks work fine with trimmed beards. It’s the full on mountain men beards that don’t work for gas masks and those weren’t allowed. When i was in a few of my black friends used their pro mask with shaving profiles. It isn’t an issue.
