GL with it Sapper. I grew one last year and folks seemed to like the new look. Surprisingly takes a bit of courage to grow one for the first time. If you do a search you will find some beard growing websites.

Not sure where you are at this point. My only advice is to let it grow out without trimming anything for at least a month. Then decide what exactly you want and trim carefully.

You will be surprised how much will eventually grow - even in areas where you thought nothing would grow. Also, you may also notice an even better beard in future attempts.

One thing that I noticed since growing a beard last year is a heavier growth, and how much more quickly the beard comes back. Very noticeable within a week now.

For me though I am not blessed with a heavy, full beard. However, with time the length compensated and gave me a good beard, especially from a short distance. How's your beard coming mate?

TS!

OK, I grew my beard as you can see by my new picture to to left. Looks good, took me about 10 minutes to grow it.

Now how am I going to get that black helmet back on??!!!!....

Sapper,

How do you expect to get a good air tight fit on your gas mask?

I grew a beard after twenty years in the Air Force; it looked great (actually, i looked like some Islamic hill billy), wife hated it, itched like crazy; its gone now. Yours looks a lot better than mine did!

M-V,
So thats what Darth Vader looks like under that helmit.

Yeah Igor, now you see why I wore a mask.....



I used to wear a mustache in my 20's when I wanted to look older (don't think it helped that much, no one was fooled). After that and my divorce, I wanted to look younger so I shaved it off.

Oh, right.... Well, on the rare occasions i have to wear combat gear on exesices, my gasmask container is full of chocolade bars and cigarettes, anyway

I´m surprised of the amount of attention my beard has gotten... Maybe we should declare it "The official FI-beard"

It´s itchy as hell, thank god i´m gonna have to shave it off, tomorrow

Can someone give me a pilot skin of Sean Connery with a beard in an FI flight suit?
