Does the Army or CID have any tattoo restrictions? 2018-02-26T10:44:04-05:00 Lilly Chan 3393710 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div> I want to get a small tattoo on my forearm, right below my elbow (just two small words).

Look up the regs so you know exactly what it says Response by SGT Jody Trapp made Feb 26 at 2018 10:53 AM 2018-02-26T10:53:01-05:00 2018-02-26T10:53:01-05:00 SPC Joseph Wojcik 3393883 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As long as it&#39;s not on your face, neck, or hands.

If it is for you, why not put it in a place not visible when you are wearing short sleeves. If it is for others, just don&#39;t do anything offensive.

The fine lines of the policy changes from time to time but the basics are that your tats must not be visible when wearing the army service uniform and they must not be extremist, sexist, racist, offensive, etc. Essentially, if it&#39;s above the neckline of a t-shirt it&#39;s verboten. Below the elbow or knee is iffy but the policy changed not long ago so have a look online.
