Sikh men can serve in the Marine Corps without shaving their beards, court says

U.S. Army Captain Kamaljeet Singh Kalsi poses in Times Square, New York, in 2010. Kalsi was the first Sikh in the U.S. Army, which allows Sikhs to serve while retaining their turbans and beards required by their faith.

A federal court has ruled that the Marine Corps can't deny Sikhs because of their unshorn beards and hair.
