Because they can. Because it's a giant, permanant "fuck you" to big military regulations. Because shaving autistically every day in a war one feels stupid.

These are the real reasons. Saying "it's to blend in with the culture" is a justification, but it's not why they do it.

A lot of operators spent time in the Big Military before jumping the fence. Shit like beards and unbloused boots is a huge motivation to go special operations. It sounds petty, but you'd understand if you'd been forced to follow retarded regulations for years.

It's to blend in around locals because a lot of the time they use civilian vehicles and dress in afghan clothing so they don't stick out, otherwise the enemy will spot them a mile off and by the time the combat team rolls up to the target, all the weapons, electronics and leaders have gone.

They also wore beards in Iraq, where the policy for men is a mustache and no beard.

They are not wearing gas masks in the first place, when the likelyhood of gas attacks are as low as they were in Afghanistan they don't bring masks on patrol, and the facial hair is irrelevant.

>Why do so many operators have itchy as fuck-looking thick beards in hot places like Afghanistan?

Confirmed for baby-face.

Beards can be a bit itchy when they're growing in, especially if you're in your teens/early 20s and the follicles are new.

I've had a full beard for about 5 years now. I play with it a lot, especially when I'm thinking, but it rarely ever itches.

The reason they have beards has been covered by most of the other posters. Great warriors throughout history, especially European history, have all rocked beards. Its a masculinity thing, simple as that.

But they aren't itchy at all, and in-fact its healthy for your face to have a beard because it allows your bodies natural oils to moisturize your face and keep air-borne particles away from your nose, not to mention it traps pheromones.

End of the day though, white men with beards just look tougher than white men without beards. The fact that European men can tend to grow the thick, aesthetically pleasing beards when compared to the stringy, uneven pubes most Arabs have coming off their jaw is an easy jab at enemy moral.

Maybe in the Middle East, but that shit was effective in Vietnam. Look up the Civilian Irregular Defense Group, Project Delta, and SF Mike Forces.

Yep, This.

Village elders won't talk to you if you're clean shaven because it means you're still a boy to them.

Also, a desert tan and long facial hair combined with afghan hats a shitty gray vest and a linen cloak means at a distance you pass for local at a glance.

I had to shave my beard for scuba, kept filling my mask with water until I did.

Same principle probably applies for gas masks except that a leak isn't an inconvenience, it's potentially lethal.

Holy shit, what the fuck happened?

To try and stay on topic, I reside in NC where the humidity is normally above the saturation point, and I have no issues with my beard. Keep it clean and combed and you're good to go. Special Operations guys do it because they can, there's not a whole lot more to it. They're manly men, and like growing beards to signify their manliness. Shaving every day innadesert sucks, I can assure you. My bitch ass skin made it so I had to start moisturizing and exfoliating my face so I wouldn't be in constant pain from sweat getting into my razor/sunburn. I loved it when I got a chance to grow mine out while we were out on a COP in bumfuck nowhere, it was great. Until we saw that the battlespace CSM was en route on the BFT, and every single one of us had to shave off a months worth of hair growth out of Jerry cans with those cheap ass 2 blade razors.

I cut myself like 6 times doing that shit, and so did everybody else. We looked retarded when he showed up, and he knew what was up. Good times though, got a coin out of it.

>>30234311
Oh and also, they don't itch after about 2 weeks. Or mine doesn't anyway. Plus if you let it get real bushy you can twirl the ends of your mustache like a cartoon villain when you get bored. Currently my mustache is about to the bottom of my bottom lip. You can only see about 1/8th of an inch of actual lip with my mouth closed.

It's taken some adjusting to get used to it, as I keep yanking hairs out while eating burgers and sandwiches because they push the hair in under my teeth and then I chomp down. Makes my eyes water a little bit. I also chew, and for about a week when my stache was past my top lip I kept hitting it with spit which redirected it straight down into my beard and onto my shirt. Like I said, takes some getting used to.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you damn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

I suppose so. I find it hard to think that the bongs could operate anywhere mildly sunny and not have their gingers and other pale motherfuckers apply sunscreen constantly.

>>
>>30235382
Even pale motherfuckers can build up a tan and resistance to sun.

I'm pale as fuck and can get sunburned really bad, but since I work outside all day every day the parts of me that are exposed to the sun a lot are now tan and don't get burned very easily. My head and neck doesn't need sunscreen anymore.
Since operators probably work outdoors a lot, I guess they don't need that much sunscreen.

> itchy as fuck-looking thick beards

Beards are not itchy. It's only itchy for like the first two weeks while growing it out from a clean shave.

Does your scalp itch all the time? No? Why would you expect your hairy face to itch all the time too?

Shaving indicates complete control and mastery over the natural, animalistic nature of man.

Conquering of nature and strength.
