The big splash with little effect. But I do wonder what the "grooming" standards will be. :) So Hegseth is a groomer, eh?

Given that, at least since the invasion of Iraq, over 20 years ago, the GIs I have seen are clean shaven, with a distinctly "high and tight" haircut, I wonder how much more severe the "grooming" could be? I have pix of my dad when he was in the army, during WWII. He had a perfectly normal looking haircut, for the early 40s. That was the army that took down the Third Reich, so the haircut had nothing to do with the "war fighting" capability of the army.

It could be vanity on the SecDef's part: requiring flag officers to have the same sort of Christian Nationalist tats that the SecDef has, but that would be a pretty big, inflammatory, ask.
