With our military actively lacking personnel, we think there should not be ignorant rules in place refusing citizens with tattoos on the face from serving. We think it’s preventing many people who simply want a better future and people who want to serve our country from joining the Armed Forces, at a time when we lack the number of personnel we need. We believe that a person should be able to serve as long as they are fit enough to serve, whether that's a man or woman. We consider that tattoos do not define a person unless obscene or offensive. Many would die for our country even.
