May 28, 2009 Hello Surehands:The old Army Regs were that you couldn't have more than 7 tattoos...But as ArRNmy stated as long as the tats aren't racist or "hateful in nature" and as long as your sleeve tat can be covered with with either your ACU or Class A sleeve you are good to go. When you go through MEPS you will be asked to list your tattoos and where they are on your body....No biggie.athena 0 Likes
