That is true. A lot of Special Operations guys don't. It is something to weigh and consider for Commands. Yes, it is okay in some cases and others not so much. It varies and depends. Beyond that we won't get into the specifics. This is not always a sure-fire system of perfection and a lot of guys nowadays have built up significant visibility via social networking in the internet age. There are still "Eyes Blocked Out" photos. SAS loves that kind of thing a few other units I can think of.

In this case, nothing that some relaxed grooming standards with a good bit of facial hair and a pair of Oakley's won't help hide...

Edit: Besides, what would Sergeant's Major do if they didn't have mustaches and hair cuts to glare at?
