U.S. Air Force Airman has an excessive amount of tattoos on his arms Aug. 31, 2011, at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev. The new Air Force Instruction 36-2903, which was revised July 18, 2011, states Airmen with excessive tattoos/brands/body markings will not be exposed or visible (includes visible through the uniform) while wearing any/all uniform combination(s) except the PTU. This includes any combination of short sleeve, long sleeve, open collar uniform, utility uniform sleeves rolled up or worn down, flight duty uniform, etc. This policy does not apply when wearing the PTU. Excessive is defined as any tattoos/brands/body markings that exceed (25 percent) of the exposed body part and are readily visible when wearing any/all uniform combinations. The photo is staged and intended to provide a visual example of improper standards due to recent updates to AFI 36-2903, Dress and Personal Appearance of Air Force Personnel.
