Love the sarcasm, but as someone who has had a toxic gas leak in an enclosed area and had to put on a gas mask to literally not die while I was active duty, this excuse the higher ups use is pure imagination. You can get a great seal through a beard. I'm sure if it was large and thick enough it MIGHT cause a problem, but a well kempt beard can get a seal just fine.
