A	USA
B	China
C	Russia
D	Afghanistan

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -The US Army, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard–along with many foreign militaries–all already accommodate the religious requirements of Sikhism, the faith born five centuries ago in South Asia that forbids men from cutting hair or trimming beards and requires turbans.

Detailed explanation-2: -The simple answer is yes. The purported values of the United States include liberty, freedom, and tolerance of religions.

Detailed explanation-3: -Navy and Marine Corps regulations require troops to remove facial hair, including those whose Jewish, Muslim and Sikh faiths call for beards as a sign of fidelity. Additionally, Sikhs are forced to cut their hair, contrary to their devotion. The Army and the Air Force do not have such restrictions.

Detailed explanation-4: -An article published in the Journal of Military Medicine in July demonstrated a significant association between shaving waivers and delays in promotion. Current military policies require all male members to maintain a clean shave whenever in uniform, unless waivered.
