If you want to spend extra time at your unit helping with our many requirements, that can be arranged. In return for the opportunities to excel we expect you to conduct yourself as a professional soldier at all times. Be a cut above the rest in both appearance and conduct. Train hard, remember what you learn, and sacrifice for your team. If you can do this we will all succeed and you will be recognized for your contributions.
Some units require haircuts close to being shaved.
Others allow hair to touch the ears. We must set the standard for all other units. Your hair should not touch your collar in the back and it should be tapered or closely blocked. The overall length should be uniform on the top and sides, but it can be slightly longer on top. Your hair does not have to be shaven like in basic training, but it should be neat.
