Kalsi is one of only three people in the U.S. military who is allowed to serve wearing his articles of faith. Since 1981, Sikhs have been disbarred from U.S. military services if they choose to serve wearing turbans and beards.
In 2009, the U.S. Army made a landmark decision, allowing Kalsi, an Army doctor, and Captain Tejdeep Singh Rattan to wear their turbans and beards while on duty. In a letter to Kalsi and Rattan written by Major General Gina Farisse, the Army stated the accommodation was not to be construed as a blanket policy, and that requests for such accommodation would be considered on a case by case basis.
