SP/4 Pierce and SSG Williams both had handle-bar moustaches.
Williams' moustache barely fit authorized limits (not drooping below the corners of the mouth)
Williams told Roger to cut his handle-bars.
Roger told Williams he would cut them only if Williams did.
Williams cut his--Roger then cut his also..........
Roger saved his handle-bars, which are taped to the above picture.
To this day, Roger can say......"I've still got my handle-bars!"
