Sal Mineo defies Army hair rules for film role
Sal Mineo resisted Army insistence on shaving his curly black hair for a recruit part in a UPI report. Army advisers and Bronx studio staff argued for cut locks, but Mineo asked for time and ultimately the Army backed off after two hours. He joked about never playing a clean All-American boy and spoke of his love for teen audiences while noting no link between his film roles and real life. The piece also notes his use of props in prior roles and his expectation the Army may not supply a neat GI uniform when drafted within two years.
