A US Army sergeant is believed to be the first Christian in the military to have been granted a religious exemption allowing him to grow out his hair.
Jacob DiPietro of the Florida Army Reserve’s 489th Transportation Company was granted the exemption on July 25, the Daily Mail reports.
The head of Army personnel wrote in a memo, “In observance with your Christian faith, you may wear uncut hair in accordance with Army uniform and grooming standards provided in Army Regulation (AR) 670-1.” The memo adds: “You may grow your hair in accordance with the standards for long hair set forth in AR 670-1.” DiPietro observes the Christian Nazarite vow, found in the Book of Numbers of the Old Testament.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We just launched a GiveSendGo page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
