In America women are not allowed to fight on front lines
It happens from time to time though
[QUOTE=TheTalon;20931767]That turban won't protect against shrapnel and falling debris, and that beard won't allow for a tight seal with a Gas Mask, and will make for something easy to grab hold of if he ever got into a hand to hand situation[/QUOTE]
You can wear a helmet under a head covering, you know.
I'd like to see a source on the second one, and in the third, when the fuck are you actually going to be close enough that someone can grab your beard in a war?

Well I'm fairly certain they do here in Canada and our dress codes are extremely similar to yours.

And no amount of armor's going to help you when an IED turns you into dog food.

Racism is terrible in the armed forces, especially the special operations groups with their super hard selection courses.
[QUOTE=sloppy_joes;20930927]Aren't they required to carry a dagger on them? Or something.[/QUOTE]

Also this is most likely because the sikh has invented a bullet proof turban :v:
Should have copied the brits on this one.

Bullet-proof? That turban there could probably deflect a rocket
That's very good to hear.
good for him I guess?

Not true! Just take the back plate out of your vest and sit on it for added protection! They do that in Helicopters as well
Sikhs are awesome.

I like how everyone who believes any religion except Christianity is obviously a diehard by-the-book follower. I mean, most Christians don't go to Church but those wacky Muslims, Sikhs and Jews do absolutely everything their holy book tells them to!
that woz sarcasm lol!!!

Well if you don't go to Church you really don't have the right to call yourself a Christian.

Where did anyone state that. You're stupid. A lot Sikhs aren't die hard religious followers, me for example. I am not a true Khalsa Sikh nor do I follow the 5 Ks. I still eat meat, I shave etc etc.
so ur basically dum

[QUOTE=Zeke129;20931814]You could use that same argument for females in the military with their hair tied back. (I don't know if female soldiers in the US military fight on the front lines, but if not women in other countries most certainly do)
Militaries the world over are the undisputed kings of selective discrimination.[/QUOTE]
Yes how dare militaries have regulations against stuff that interferes with the gear that can save your life and will also mean more maintenance grr that's discrimination.
The restrictions on hair isn't because it could be grabbed and pulled in combat or it gets in the way of gear somewhat, it's because longer hair requires uneeded maintenance (along with the risk of lice and the diseases they carry). It's abit more relaxed with women; especially since they're mostly non-infantry rear echelon roles, but they still have it as short as possible and tied back.
[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;20929579](no offense meant) I actually thought the Sikh religion had ceased for the most part a few hundred years ago.
Anyway, this is good, but I don't see why they were forbidden to join since 1984 in the first place.[/QUOTE]
