Tattoos are stupid and tacky but to each their own.

The Air Forced had a policy against tats on the face, above the collarbone, and below what is covered by a T-Shirt and military issued gym style shorts since the 90's.

In other words, if you can see it when dressed in a T-Shirt and short gym shorts, it was against the regs.

I want to get one, presently I have none.

But I can't find an artist I am willing to do it. Watching Ink Masters and Best Ink has shown me that the supposed best are not always that good.

Hollywood Tattoo in Lees Summit Mo has a couple amazing artists. I've given them my ideas and they've put them on paper like Picasso. John did all the sketches. Amazing artist

The US military wants fodder, not gangs.

You can take a bullet for us but no tattoos allowed below the knees or elbows!

Seriously?

Load of bullshit.

I think it's funny how the military goes on and on about military bearing and haircuts and knifehands and how all that kind of crap is what wins wars, but when you look at pictures from WW2 and troops have long hair and visible tattoos on sailors and hands in pockets and t-shirts outs and they beat the Germans and Japanese around the world.

What?

What long hair?

Sailors always have "whitewalls".

The administration might be shooting itself in the foot. The fat out of touch asses in the Pentagon probably haven't been anywhere in the real world since they made General and Admiral but tattoos below the knee are popular among the independent thinking women the US Military generally targets.

My son has several tattoo's. He joined the Army in 2003, he had one large cross on his back, and another tat on the back of his leg. Since then he's had 3 kids...he has 3 large tats on both arms, almost a sleeve, that have his kids names with birthdates on them, in fact he just had the 3rd one added when he was home about 4 weeks ago on leave. Kinda funny in a way...people see those tats on his arm and they think it's his kids date of death instead of birthday!! Anyway....he's had no problems about them. He just left for Afghanistan this morning...4th time to the ME (3 times to Iraq). Hopefully there is a grandfather clause!

You are in the military and must abide by the standards of appearance in force as outlined in I believe it is AR 670-1. If you do not like it get the h__ out of my Army. Tats look disgusting when visible in uniform. If the tats are not seen when in any dress, work or PT uniform the that is another matter.
