Sikhs Fight U.S. Army Over Bans on Turbans and Uncut Hair

Two recruits of the Sikh faith set to report for duty in U.S. Army in July, but the Army says they must remove their turbans, cut their hair and beards, which are essential and important parts of the Sikh religious practice and aren't to be removed. The civil rights group, the Sikh Coalition, along with the two soldiers have filed appeals to the inspector general of the Army and the Pentagon requesting that the Army accommodate the Sikh religious articles of faith. However, the Army declares there to be a problem when religious practices interfere with military gear. Joe Sterling of CNN reports the story.
