Bongo, what delightful and stimulating photos. I shaved this morning and am already tempted to have another shave. Good stuff. Thanks, Bongo.

Hopefully they carried a hone! One drop of the razor with armed soldiers awaiting a shave could get pretty hairy pretty fast!

A nice clean, close shave is a great way to de-stress. That's probably a motive behind shaving in battle.
I've been in a class that cranks up at 6 AM the past couple of weeks and haven't had the luxury of indulging in my usual shave routine, but was off today and really felt great after my morning shave.
