I remember scraping my face in Ranger School. I had a baby face and couldn't grow much, but had to do it anyway. Super lame, felt terrible haha. When I got out I didn't even care about a beard, I was just happy to not HAVE to shave every single day.

Wow that brings back “good” memories. Used to sleep snuggled up to a canteen so in the morning the water would be at least somewhat closer to 98.6 degrees than to ambient temp!

Sea Bee's are the greatest neighbors you can ask for when deployed! I love those guys!!! It's amazing how they can turn pile of shit you end up on into a somewhat comfortable place to crash in a couple of days.
