AHC: Have face paint be a part of a modern military's uniform.

The Picts stopped painting themselves before their kingdom came to an end. Also, I feel I should mention that it's unlikely they used woad as people like to claim, it was probably an iron-based pigment. Maori are more likely, but those are technically tattoos so I don't think they'd qualify.

Yes.

I knew I had seen these or pics like these before.
 
But, why? There's no point on having face paint on a dress uniform, and I'd argue camouflage paint more than suffices for combat attire.
