Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassBeard: He starts the game clean shaven, but grows a beard over his time in the war, and is a very capable soldier.



* BadassBeard: The only character aside from Vasili Koslov to have a notable beard, and is a pretty trigger-happy soldier who manages to survive through North Africa and Western Europe unscathed.



* BadassMustache: He's the only notable character with a mustache, and he survives the war unscathed while also killing dozens of Germans.

* LeeroyJenkins: He and the other tanks of the 7th Armored are forced into this sort of tactic because the Crusaders' guns lack the range of the German Panzers to make a safer strategy viable; even the narration at the opening of the campaign notes that this is "a dangerous strategy which leaves much to be desired". [[CrazyEnoughToWork It works out well enough, though]].
