Also says to bring electric clippers if you have them, so I'm assuming there's going to be bootcamp-style cuts done in the field every week.

Dad, the "High and Tight" will not suffice at Ranger School.......a real short haircut is what a man wants for the course.

Use the clippers at the shortest setting you can. Grow a short goatee and lambchops. You'll be good to go.

how come I wasn't given that option when I was going to school. If I was him, I'd show up with a mohawk!
