It certainly wouldn't surprise me. Having said that dispensation for religious reasons has been around for a long time. However, this must conflict with health and safety as I struggle to wear a Covid mask for an hour with a beard so I don't know how aircrew would cope with all the itching, or would that be an exception? The other point is that women have been allowed long hair but I gather it had to be tied up and secure whilst on duty so the same must apply to the men.
Sadly the military presence at my daughters work has disappeared otherwise she could have asked current serving officers from all three services if this was true.

Just looked at the list of closures, and theyve got one wrong. Mildenhall isnt closing, the USAF announced a few weeks ago that theyre staying.
And unless MOD are going to do some major building works at sites that arent closing Im wondering where everyone is going to go. To give you an example Redford and Dreghorn barracks have 2 infantry battalions, where will they go? Only thing I can think of is Kirknewton.
Mind you wee bernie will be in power and it will be a seperate nation.
I don't suppose the Trumpton administration has persuaded the MOD to sell the land to the the USAF and therefore no longer RAF? Make a good golf course with all that sandy soil
