Allow the British army to have facial hair in line with the other 2 services.
Rejected

What the petition asks
Facial hair is now allowed in the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. Yet the Army still refuse to change that rule for their officers and soldiers despite the huge call for it and the complete lack of reasoning not to allow it. Facial hair is allowed for religious grounds so should be for all.
Why it was rejected
It was created under a fake or incomplete name.
