I doubt it...AF doesn't need prior service.

Rules change constantly.....with the failure to meet recruiting goals last year you may just want to as a local recruiter ....waivers are much easier to come by when they are short of retention/recruitment goals.....just my two cents.

Side note to full sleeves, legs, neck tattoos....had a first shirt with all three....he spent lots of money on good body makeup to cover them up when in uniform.....after all the AFI says "not visible in uniform" ....so if can cover it with a uniform piece or cover it with body make up it's not visible.....any way moving on.

PO3 (Join to see) I wasn't able to find anything specifically about prior service, but I will refer you to the following website, where you can read the AF policy for tattoos and even chat with an online advisor. Either that, or see your nearest AF recruiter. Good Luck !!

May be misreading, but ROTC doesn't qualify as "prior service" nor "veteran" status
Neither does CAP

PO3 (Join to see) - You are in an AFROTC program but can't join the AF? I'm confused.
