Marines Ban Tattoos Removing Public Perception
Marines have always been America’s iconic tough guy persona known to have bulging bicep “guns” detailed with bold tattoos. Ironically, tattoo popularity has tattoos visibly becoming “The American Way,” while America’s almigthty Marines are removing tattoos.
Explicit orders from the top general of the Marine Corps initiated a ban on sleeve tattoos within the organization. Sleeve tattoos are those tattoos located on the biceps “guns” or forearms, in other words below the uniform sleeve.
Going forward individuals already having tattoos are exempt from the tattoo ban, however all new recruits will not be allowed to have visible tattoos below the uniform sleeve line, thus leaving no choice for wanna-be marines than removing tattoos.
