Wow, big changes. I understand the reasoning behind it, but I have mixed feelings. I guess we will see how it all plays out.

I see a problem with one part of this. Its the Tats and piercings. They have never really been attached to Religion except for those in the South Pacific and in some other remote places. It reminds me of the North Carolina girl that claimed a piercing she got was religious since she belonged to a church that believed in that it was. I can understand the Sikhs, since history holds them as fierce warriors, wearing their Turbans and beards.
I see another problem. Its those that do not believe in a GOD. The atheists. I can see them crying to the ACLU to by saying that they are in a hostile environment due to those that are religious because they get to display it.
But it is a good thing that the military is taking into consideration other religious individuals that want to serve.
I think we will be seeing Army and Navy personnel with beards again after over 100 years since the last bearded Army or Navy person left the service.

Back in the 70's in the Navy we were allowed beards as long as your OBA and Gas Masked sealed.

Hmmmmmm, I always thought we were here to preserve and protect democracy, not practice it . . . Make no mistake, this will get out of control - kindof like a CWO saying "Hey, watch this . . ." Here we go . . .
