You were asked – TMP link

Which historical real-life military person had the best mustache?

And in the final round of voting:

38% said "Sam Elliot"

17% said "Theodore Roosevelt"

11% said "Ambrose Burnside"

And yes, Sam Elliot is a veteran.

Burnside wins it for me, plus also best Other Facial Hair.

I always thought that Hitler's tash was stylish and neat, with a certain gravitas. Definitely my favourite.


Just kidding!.

The toothbrush (aka Hitler) moustache was very common amongst German veterans of the Great War. It was the only 'tache that allowed a proper seal on their gasmasks.
