WAHAHAHAHA! I've got 16 years in the Army Active/Guard. I'm an electrical engineer and Software Systems Engineer for the Air Force. I play the bagpipe professionally.
Both of my arms are tattooed above my elbows. I work in a very conservative environment. My tattoos are placed such that I can cover them easily with a sport-shirt. Tattoo on my leg too--pants cover that.
You'd never know if I had tattoos if you saw me at work.
I'm very proud of my tattoos. I got them in Scotland each time I was over there....
Thank you for making my point.
