Today’s MilPic courtesy of Foreign Policy’s photos of the week feature. The caption reads "German soldiers during NATO military exercises near Zagan, Poland, June 18.” The beard is epic. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that this man is a senior NCO, he certainly has the expression of one.

Coincidentally, the New York Times ran a piece two days ago with photos of US, British and Lithuanian forces training together in the Baltics which was quite interesting.

He's an "oberstabsgefreiter" a rank roughly equivalent to corporal in the CA (or an OR-4a in NATO designation since the Germans have two ranks levels at the OR-4 level).
Thanks Howard. Good to see you here.
I give you Tactical Beards, Viking style:
