hi there fellow Vj's...

I'm just wondering if a tattoo can be a possible reason for you to have a

fail med results? I am planning to have a very little tattoo of our names, but

I wouldn't have it if that would be one of the reasons that might affect my future medical

examinations.

does anyone have any when they had your med exam and yet it didn't hurt the results?

thanks for your future replies.

You should be fine. Of course, if your tattoo says, "Die Americans! Die!", and they see it, you may have troubles at the interview! :whistle::lol:

My wife has two tattoos and one is very visible on her thigh. She passed her medical with no problems, so I would not worry about it. I might consider waiting till after the medical to get it, but if you can't wait, its not a reason for denial.

I really don't think it would affect the process... I don't remember the doctor asking about having a tat or piercing either, or I would remember saying "yes" (I have a belly button piercing).

I passed the exams with no harm, you should be alright as well ;)

As long as the tats are not considered gang related or for a group wishing to overthrow the US government, you will be fine.  "I love you mom" sounds fine :)

SLEC had a history of making female applicants to a  pyschiatric evaulation if they had them, but this seemed to be more happening around 2008 and earlier

They are going to Canada, so a tat about overthrowing the US government might be OK.

YMMV
