Hey all,

I'm enlisting in August, (the day after i turn 18)
i have a tattoo on my upper arm of a dragon, goes from
the highest point of my upper arm, to about 2- 2 1/2 inches above
my elbow, will this pose a problem at all? its hidden well from a bigger sized T-shirt, but a snug fitting t-shirt shows the tail of the dragon,
i can provide pictures if need be, thanks all, God bless the U.S. Marines.

Read the Poolee Rules and Sticky Posts (http://www.leatherneck.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=9). Lots of info and rules that all abide by.

Your recruiter will know. You might be able to get a waiver but I'm not sure.

Of course you can. How do you think kids get into delayed entry? Go to a recruiter and ask.

Talk to a recruiter online? If you find out more about that, please PM me.

You can see a recruiter anytime you want...you need parental permission to enlist at 17. You will probally need a waiver for that tattoo.

It will show in the "C" uniform and with PT gear on. But a recruiter can best tell you! Just go on down.

When you finish with that, start using the dictionary, spell checker, and punctuation!

Please.

We have a 13 year old who comes and PTs at our bi-weekly recruiter meetings, so it's never too soon.
