What famous ruler had his troops shave before going into battle so their enemies could not grab their beards?
 
Good question- I have heard several mentioned- which eventually led to tight haircuts and.or completely shaven heads.

I was informed when I was in that close shaving was paramount to obtaining a good seal for your protective (gas) mask.

It was a long time before you and me.
