BLUE FORCE STORY UPDATE
Last month BFT brought a story to your attention where the Army was considering new "grooming standards" including restrictions on tattoos.
Today :
JALALABAD, Afghanistan — In the works for more than a year, strict new rules governing things like tattoos and grooming for soldiers have been approved by the Secretary of the Army and are only awaiting a final signature, Sgt. Maj. of the Army Raymond Chandler said Saturday.
Speaking to troops at bases in eastern Afghanistan, Chandler said Secretary John McHugh has approved but not yet officially put his name to the changes to Army Regulation 670-1.
Below is a picture of Marine Cpl. Burness Britt who was injured in combat... Guess the Army is more concerned with his ink than the lead and shrapnel he took for his country.
