I served in the Navy, a plankowner aboard the USS BOSTON (SSN-703) Decommissioned in 1999 and scrapped in 2002. Now I find myself in the unique cradle-to-grave position of helping to care for its remains at the Buffalo & Erie County Naval & Military Park. All that really remain are the sail and rudder shipped here in 2003 along with a few cleats. I feel like I'm caring for a vessel that met a premature and untimely demise. Now I care for her remains. ...Sort of.
Yes indeed, beards have a long history and tradition in the Navy, but did you know that extended to the wives as well? No wait! This must be a crewperson during "halfway night" going "halfway"
Actually, these gals probably have more facial hair then some guys trying to grow beards!

...I thought they had more hair? ...Almost as much as some of the officers' wives.
