[StartQuote] Hi Frank, When I was on active duty on USS Long Beach CGN9 in 1984-1985 timeframe I remember being allowed to wear a beard, Then one day we received a directive from above that the new regulations did not allow beards anymore for shipboard personnel due to their interference with the fit of the Mark V gas mask. I remember my division CPO, Pete Sise who had an EPIC red beard and showed up to muster the next day with a clean shaven face and a large white streak where his beard used to be. That image seared the event into my memory. So at least from the time period of the mid 1960s to 1985 beards were allowed by enlisted men in the USN. IS that not your recollection for WW2 regulations? Maybe Ted would know? Jerry Jerry Gilmartin[EndQuote]
