“Its a tradition that goes back to the 16th century, where all my male ancestors would keep a similar moustache. It is a symbol of strength. I’ve kept it for 15 years already, and I cut it sometimes when its really long – because if I hadn’t it would be much, much longer than it is now. And out of all the officers I’m the only with this so people usually say I’m the unique one”.
“This moustache is my source of pride, history and honour”.
