You may have a hard time with it, but that's exactly what I am saying. I cannot waer my hair in any fashion I want, I cannot dye my hair any unnatural color, I cannot grow any facial hair other than a Hitler moustache, I can't smoke dope if I am in Colorado, I cannot participate in anti-war rallies, I cannot burn the flag, I cannot publically criticize my Chain of Command, i cannot wear a cross, crucifix, or Star of David around my neck exposed and the list goes on.

It is called uniformed services for a reason.
