( oh and check their photo album and health certificates ! )Hmmmmmn, you may get hurt worse than the tattoo for wearing a army qaulification wings that you havent earned....To honor Gramps and not get your own butt kicked you might try incorporating his name, Division or unit numbers into the tattoo so you will make the statement that HE qualified for the wings..Other than that...Life is pain, a tattoo is just a tattoo. Hope this helps........
Yes, recruiter can and are allowed to have tattoo's, however they must be authorized under the Army's tattoo policy. These policies can be found in Army Regulation (AR)670-1
The US Army is presently going to dress blues.
6 iches from top of shoulder
On the left lapel of the wearer.
Officers and Enlisted men of the Artillery who have completed the basic artillery training courses wear the artillery red shoulder cord on the right shoulder of the Army dress and full dress uniform
The correct placement of rank for a non-commissioned officer's Army dress blues is centered on the left sleeve between the shoulder seam and the elbow. The shoulder sleeve insignia is centered on the left shoulder 1/2 inch below the top of the shoulder seam.

AR 670-1, para. 29-16a(2) Remove when they "fail to qualify or are exempt from qualification by Army regulations."
AR 670-1 Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms That will cover everything from greens, acus, whites, blues, how long side burns should be and what gloves go where and when.
The unit crest is worn on the epalette of the dress green uniform,all nco's wear a green cloth secured to the epalette and the unit crest is placed upon the same...
The short answer: With a few exceptions, almost any award or badge that can be worn on the Army Class A "greens" may be worn on dress blues. On the Army male Dress Blue Uniform one may wear ribbons, full-sized medals, or miniature medals over the left breast pocket. However the miniature medals may only be worn with a bow tie. Special skill (such as airborne wings) and marksmanship badges are also worn on the left side above or below ribbons, though when wearing fullsize medals on dress blues drivers and mechanics badges may not be worn nor may any special skills badges or marksman ship badges be worn beneath full-size medals on the pocket flap of Army male dress blues. For the full answer see Army Regulation 670-1 for wear of uniforms Chapter 20 is male dress blue uniform and chapter 21 is for females.

There is no flag on the dress uniform
Yes, Army Rangers (as well as Special Forces, 82nd Airborne and 101st Airborne) wear bloused boots with their greens. Most of them have one set of Corcoran jump boots they keep spitshined for wear with their greens. The problem with blousing your greens is, if you ever get reassigned from one of those units to a leg unit, you have to buy new dress green pants because there's a black stripe running around both legs. But you do not have to be in any Ranger Bat or Spec Ops unit to bluose your greens. If you have airborne qualification wings you can blouse your green if your commandor permits the bloused greens In general you won't see a soldier in a non-airborne unit blouse his greens except for a parade or something--it's really hard to march in low quarters, so blousing greens is common for honor guards and the like. In the non-airborne parts of the Army you will hear one term over and over: the airborne mafia. We legs don't really care for paratroopers, and we're not going to have their bloused greens in our units if we can help it.
