Unfortunately, the high standards of the American army have eroded about the formation of the body and other standards in recent years, especially during the period of the mandate of former subscribers, Mark Millie, who put a bad example of the summit through its personal company.

The memorandum specifically calls the protocols of the beard.
He directs the agent of defense of employees and preparing to consider “the current standards set by military departments related to physical fitness, body formation, and grooming, which include but not limited to a beard.”
The memorandum is reviewed to study how the standards change since 2015.

“This will be part of one of the first things we do in the Pentagon-a review that it is in a neutral in the sexes-standards that guarantee the preparation and merit in the forefront and the center,” Higseth promised in January.
In December 2015, the army opened all the combat roles of women. In a Bodcast interview shortly before his exploitation as a minister, Higseth said that the United States “should not have women in combat roles.” But during the confirmation session, he made it clear that in ground fighting roles, women should meet the same standards as men.
“Whether it is a man or a woman, they must meet the same high standards,” he said. “Wherever these things are eroded, or the courses or criteria have been changed to meet the shares … this is the type of review that I am talking about. Not whether women should reach wild fighting.”
The review can lead to changes in the army’s combat fitness test, which is currently registered under the requirements of age and sex. This has become the standard fitness test of the army in 2023, after decades of physical fitness test that imposed the same standards on men and women.
The current test requires men between the ages of 17 and 21 years two miles in 22 minutes, and women of the same age to do this in 23 minutes and 22 seconds.

The service branches have started making accommodation for recruits who do not meet fitness standards in recent years as a way to address the employment crisis. The army and the navy provided training on the pre -expression camp for those who did not meet the fitness or testing degrees. But these recruits had to fulfill the same standards in order to graduate from training courses and service.
“When you were In the army, We expelled the good soldiers because of their naked women tattooed on their arms, and today we are resting standards on shaving, distortions, cakes, and direct obesity, “Higseth wrote in his book” War on Warriors “.

“A piece, the standards had to go … because of fairness,” he added.
The branches of the service began to allow the forces with the sport of various hairstyles, and this is greatly attributed to the female members of the service who argued that the fixed narrow cake was leading to hair loss. In recent years, the army began allowing Cornrows and transformations after the female members argued that hairstyles were cheaper and easier to maintain.
