Has anyone heard any news of that guardsmen who was suing the U.S. Army over the new Tattoo rules because he said they ruined his career plans? Since the rules have been somewhat relaxed since they were first put into place I was wondering what his outcome was. In a way the Army was admitting that he was right.

The Soldier was grandfathered in by the Army, MAJ Private RallyPoint Member, and the Army asked that his $100 million lawsuit be dropped:
