The story I'm going to share is going to be considered a 'myth' or 'urban-legend' by some.
I choose to believe it's real, because I choose to live as though the world is still full of mysticism and wonder.

Now onto the story.

The story starts back in the Vietnam War.
The Army Special Forces was looking for expert trackers and survivalists to assist with the war effort in the jungle.
The Vietnamese style of Guerilla warfare was something that hadn't been encountered in traditional warfare before.

The Army caught wind of this lore and began to recruit the best of the best Native American scouts and trackers from the reservations across the United States.
Once they enlisted, they went through basic training and standard Army protocols.

The Army began to test different theories with new recruits, letting some of the recruits keep their long hair while others shaved.
The long-haired recruits continued to outperform the shaved-head recruits time and time again.

It's almost as though their hair was an extension of their Nervous System.
An antenna, giving them access to a subtle but crucial sixth sense.

This story supposedly came from the wife of a psychologist who worked in the VA Medical Hospital.
He was generally a conservative, well-groomed man.
According to his wife, after discovering these semi-classified Army documents he never cut his hair or shaved his beard again.
