Does your unit participate in either Mo-vember or Mustache March? Do you consider this a tradition, good lighthearted fun, or something else altogether different? Alright, let's see those amazing photos, any leftover photos/stories from Movember are still good-to-go at this point, or even a previous year's event like a "'stache dash" or mustached running event? How about those glue on 'staches, an epic draw-on 'stache, or even the classic 30 day 'stache (just before hitting rese, a.k.a. shaving)! I know there's some outstanding photos of the elusive "field 'stache" and the ever-present "deployment 'stache" out there... so, whatever category or type, we want to see them! There are many stories out there both past and present--some pretty entertaining--on the subject of 'Mo-vember' or 'Mustache March,' here's your opportunity to tell your tale and share those outstanding mustacheographs (pictures), and we all know that there are some outstanding examples out there; please, feel free to share your any photos, links, sound files, or anything else needed to help tell your story, and of course please don't hesitate to share your thoughts--good, bad, or indifferent--on the practice as well as any stories, experiences, historical or military cultural context, etc.; well, I'm certain that this will prove to be a genuinely fun and informative conversation, so pull up a keyboard and let's get this thing started; thank you for all that you do, and... see you all in the discussion threads!   

 

---------------------------------------------

 

Note: the original thread from this past November involved both "Movember" and "Mustache March," the title was updated in anticipation (and celebration) of Mustache March, and will return to a dual title at the end of March. Thanks for all that you do, now lets get out there and grow some sweet 'staches!

The CGOs and I partake in "Movember" and "Mustache March" to see who can grow the best mustache or the craziest looking one amongst us.  I need to start in late September and require sunlight for people to even notice a mustache is being attempted.

In reference to Mustache March, if you'd like to learn about the larger-than-life figure who inspired it, here's a good read about where it all began "Fighter Pilot: The Memoirs of Legendary Ace Robin Olds" by Robin Olds with Christina Olds and Ed Rasimus, New York: St. Martin's Press, 2010. Hope you all are planning to participate this year, and I hope to see some great photos, see you all in the threads!
