I was perusing the Navy News on the web earlier, and came across an article. (I'll put the link at the bottom in case anyone is bored enough to read the whole article).
The big point of interest is this:
Women in the navy are now allowed to get certain types of permanent make-up.Huh?
I mean, who in the hell would want to get permanent make-up in the first place....what about when you get older...those nice, perfect eyebrows are going to droop and sag.
But, here's the catch for those military women who just need it: It has to be subtle and compliment your skin tone. Uh, I hate to ask the obvious question- but who is going to pay $1,000 to have permanent lipstick put on that looks natural?
Other "big" changes involve which boots can be worn, proper wearing of warfare pins, and the hot topic that everyone has been dying to learn about, the new Africom badge approval.
Any guesses on exactly how much money the government spent/will spend on discussing, deciding on regulations, and updating all of the manuals just for the make-up issue alone?
