HELP. Army, Nat. Guard, USMC. looking to enlist.
Im finishing up with highschool here in a couple of weeks, and no recruiter will work with me until i have my diploma, as i go to an Alternative Highschool.
Majority of my family is Army, so i naturally want to be the First Marine, but i have tattoos on my arms and the Marines said they are Disqualifying.
If any one can answer some questions i have about-
Army,
National Guard,
USMC,
i'd greatly appreciate the help.

read the FAQ, and wait a few weeks?
Also.... if you have questions, ask them. Don't bull**** around with qualifying statements and other random useless ****. Questions get answers. A question if you can ask a question gets looked at with scorn.

Even in the MC today being GF means ****, you'll still not get certain duties and possible promotions because of ink. |

I know the army was still doing waivers for ink below the elbow up to about a week and a half ago.
