Tattoo

The Air Force’s current tattoo regulation was signed into effect March 1998, and despite rules that are more than 12 years old, there is still confusion on how the Air Force Instruction should be interpreted. Visible tattoos can’t cover more than 25 percent of the skin of an exposed body part. A body part is defined as joint to joint, or joint to edge of the uniform, such as wrist to elbow, knee to ankle or bottom of sleeve to elbow. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Terry Wasson)
