The U.S. Navy directs commands that grant sailors facial hair shaving waivers to submit monthly accountability reports. According to the Navy’s instructions cited by two outlets, these reports are due by the 15th of each month. The requirement applies to commands that issue waivers, indicating that waiver records and compliance related to those authorizations must be tracked and periodically reported. The reporting order is framed as an accountability measure, with the Navy setting a specific deadline for regular submission rather than an open-ended timeline. Both sources describe the same directive and the same monthly due date, with no additional differences in the reported content. The outlets do not provide further details about what information must be included beyond the requirement to submit an accountability report for sailors holding shaving waivers. The policy remains in effect as the Navy continues collecting recurring monthly submissions from participating commands.
