Just Read a Article About the Marine Corps' Policy on Tattoos

In an article on marinesmagazine.dodlive.mil , I read that the Marine Corps is cracking down on the art of tattooing so that their soldiers who leave the Corps can actually get jobs such as in law enforcement. They say that if the soldiers have to many tattoos it may hinder their ability to apply for a job and get accepted but it may also hurt them when they become civilians again. For example, and interviewee in the article states that he has talked to former Marines who can't even get a job at a fast food place because of the tattoos they got in the Corp. If I were in this boat, I would probably never get tattoos or even go as far as getting them removed completely.
