US Special Forces in Afghanistan have a dispensation to grow beards

In boot camp a yank’s face is cleared
Of the tiniest trace of a beard
But some troops are calling
This practice appalling
And say goatees are not to be feared

    Is it not clean shaven for the wearing of a gas mask? Otherwise, the mask won’t make a proper seal.

    If you meet a big yank with a beard You”d be foolish to not be afeard If he”s toting a gun He”ll kill you and your chum Saying,goddamm them foreigners are weird.

    I don’t blame him, if I was watching poppy fields 24/7 I’d probably want to hide my face too..
