Kid in my unit had a big rear end crossed pistols on his shoulder blades.

The best piece of advice a drill ever gave me: Military tattoos are for tools. And sure enough, it's gotta be at least 8/10.

I remember when we had our mandatory tattoo inspection in Afghanistan. Sooooo many juggalo tats on people I otherwise respected.

One of the guys in my platoon got a bow tie tattooed on his dick.

Woah really? Why did you have this? Coast guard had a policy at one point where full sleeves weren't allowed, but that was fairly easy to enforce. That's out the window now so any neck/hand tattoos would be easily recognized. Never had a mandatory inspection for it, though.

It was an Army - wide requirement following the new version of AR 670-1 back in April. All tattoos visible while in the PT uniform had to be inspected and any that were noncompliant with the revised regulation had to be documented with a memorandum and photograph in order to be grandfathered in.

Ah ok. We did the same thing when we banned full sleeves for a few years. I thought you meant the army had an annual tattoo inspection which made me go :psyduck:

My unit hosed up when they took the photos and people took that as an opportunity to get more in before regulation photos were taken.

I have arms that are relatively covered (and are grandfathered) but have never had photos taken of them. I'm sure this will be the basis of a separation action at some point when somebody doesn't like something I have done.

Hey, cut him some slack, he only has like 6 months left.

Would still rather spend 2 and a half years as a gay reservist than another 6 months on active duty, though.

I think at least 80% of the army could be reservists / nasty girls.

There's just nothing of any real importance to do.

Having spent the last couple of weeks showing up for a PT formation, then the rest of the day either napping or playing video games, I can confirm that there is nothing to do.

Uh, I tried my hardest to avoid anything military related when I was off duty. Sure as poo poo didn't talk about anything army related at the bar.

The SF unit we worked with had a platoon of retards from 1-41 infantry out of Bliss assigned as their uplift. When they weren't busy shooting at US contractors on the FOB or hitting electrical lines (to the FST, of all things) with the backhoe they stole from the locals, they loved to walk around in their baseball hats with their pants unbloused talking about how they were basically SF.

99% of the reason my hair was never in regs was because I wanted to look least Army as possible when not in uniform.
