Naval Message on tattoo policies
Perhaps if you wade through this message it will provide better guidence. After all, this is what the recruiters have to go by.

I honestly don't know. I served twenty+ years and never got a tattoo. Got a bad dose of the clap once, got stabbed with a butteryfly knife in the PI, but that's another set of stories.
