Considering that the Israelis already make protective
masks for beared males the issue of beards is trivial.

It's just that most nation's militaries do not make
allowances for facial hair.  Part of this is that
uniformity kick the US Army is on.  I swear, if they
could make us the same height and dye our skin and
hair the same color they would.

infantry/Akritai figures they will have beards,
goatees, mustaches, etc.
