Keep working with the Doc. It may take a little time, but getting it to the point where its visibility no longer makes it stick out like a sore thumb will eventually make it a non-issue.

Good luck.

While you are at it, get in better shape. Good luck on the waiver.

Having a woman's breasts tattooed on your neck is never a good idea. But I guess that ship has already sailed.

Anyway, you didn't ask zoomies to comment, so I'll just sit here, be quiet and x2 Baseplates suggestion.

Ranger Ingraham,

Will do. I've been PTing in the spare time I've had trying to get all of this squared away. The waiver has passed. I head to MEPS tomorrow for my physical.

Ranger Baseplate,

Blowtorch. That's a new one. I've had numerous bladed tools recommended. All for the simple price of framing and keeping the inked skin as a wall ornament.

I think I'll take the Army's leniency though. Thanks.

Rangers,

Thank you both for the advice.

C-MAC,

Luckily for me it's not a woman's name...or breasts.

Zoomies are clear for comment!
