The fine art of the mustache

The United States Marine Corps mustache:

Lance Cpl. Blake Miller, who became known at the "Marlboro Man" after Luis Sinco snapped this photo of him in the 2004 'Battle of Fallujah'.



1004.5.b(5)
"The face will be clean shaven, except that a mustache may be worn. When worn, the mustache will be neatly trimmed and must be contained within the lines of B-B', C-C', D-D' and the margin area of the upper lip, as shown in figures 1-1 and 1-2. The individual length of a mustache hair fully extended must not exceed 1/2 inch."
