I've never heard of that.  It doesn't even make sense.

Not sure why anyone's arguing about why or why not; I'm pretty sure that wasn't his question.

Also, I feel compelled to explain my perspective on the situation (merely the beard itself).  Two years ago I was ordered by a staff member (while on PAT pl) to go to the MIR due to excessive skin irritation caused by shaving.  There I was given a chit in order to cease shaving.  When I was...

Yes, yes, no. Clean shaven now.  I had the beard for nearly two months of the course, then was told to submit a memo, and while waiting I was told to shave until a conclusion was reached.  Course is four months.  I've dropped the issue in order to prevent any more drama. I'm clean shaven now. ...

I think now you understand my frustration a little more. :P

I'm floored too, but if I push the matter any further it'll only make my situation worse than it has already become.

I received clarification on the issue today.  My course director told me that since I dressed it to the Tp WO, and not higher, than it was delegated down to him to have my memo denied.  This was decided by the RSM, and I was told I could redress my memo but it would be denied by the RSM...

Well, I'm just going to drop the issue. I appreciate all the assistance, but the school doesn't recognize it the way most seem to. Apparently the course direcotr put his minutes on it because it wasn't dressed up properly, and informed me that the RSM has given his input on the matter and it...

Thanks, I appreciate any assistance that could help me handle this in a proper way.

I was told from my staff to dress it up to the Tp WO when I asked.  I'll redress it to the proper authority and find out what the result is.

I'm going to try and deal with this properly on my own end and see what recourse there is, rather than dropping names and ranks and make this a bigger issue than it is.  The biggest confusion that I have is that the memo is dressed to the Tp WO.  I see two minutes on the memo, one recommending...

I'm not even really sure.  The memo stopped half way up the chain.  The QL3 course director put a minute on the memo not recommending approval, and it was given back to me.

I appreciate all the assistance, but the matter is closed.  My memo was returned to me today, denied on the basis that I'm a QL3 student.

Thanks for that!

I do have it currently, but I have no proof that I was ever allowed to have the beard.  Maybe I'm confused but the refs seem to indicate I at least need permission, and my staff requires that I have a memo.

My original memo seems to have gone missing, and I've since been loaded on course and a memo is required.

Thank you very much!

The ref is A-AD-265-000/AG-001, under Section 2, under paragraph 5. a (3) (a), how do you write that in as a reference? Would this be proper? Ref:  a.  A-AD-265-000/AG-001, page 2-2-3, para 3a

I'm in the Navy, currently posted to Kingston, and I'm required to submit a memo in order to keep the beard I've had for two years.  Does anyone happen to have a copy of such a memo they could let me use?  Or point me in the right direction (as far as supporting references and justification)...

From my experience (and this is reg force, so it'll probably be different), you'll get a lot of thing.  When I got all of my stuff, it was about two kit bags (standard'ish sized duffel bags) and basically a hockey bag, all full of various kit (tightly packed as well). If you're reserve and...
