>Many of the men [**of Easy Company**] shaved their heads, or got Mohawk haircuts (bald on each side, with a one- or two-inch strip of short hair running from the forehead to the back of the neck). Pvts. [Forrest Guth](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/Forrest-Guth.JPG) and Joseph Liebgott did the cutting, at 15¢ per man. >[Colonel Sink](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8c/Lieutenant_General_Robert_F_Sink506e.png) came round, saw the haircutting going on, smiled, and said, “I forgot to tell you, some weeks ago we were officially notified that the Germans are telling French civilians that the Allied invasion forces would be led by American paratroopers, all of them convicted felons and psychopaths, easily recognized by the fact that they shave their heads or nearly so.” ____________________________________ **Source:** Ambrose, Stephen Edward. “Look Our Hitler!
