Edit:
I hope you didn't get your info that Jughead mentioned off this site:

As an aside - and whether many WANTED Gen Mattis to be the next Commandant - he is not the Commandant and will never be the Commandant.

FYI ladies and gentlemen. There is currently no written prohibition against visible tattoos at UAL. And that is verified through flight and corporate management.
Most likely a merger oversight but at the moment visible tatts are good to go. I figure it will be about 30 days or fewer after this posting that we will see an FOM update in the pilot appearance area. So if you ever wanted that ultra cool flying, turbo jet powered, winged demon, wrapped around a cloud on your neck. Now is the time to do it!

“This policy that doesn’t allow sleeve tattoos is a bunch of horse****,” said Mattis, as he showed off his own full-sleeve tattoos running down both arms. “So that’s the first thing to go.”
Another policy change includes tweaks to physical training...
“These air wingers and admin folks think they are sitting pretty, only heading to the gym or not doing PT at all,” said Mattis, in between his third round of 350lb back squats. “So I’ll also be leading them in 15 mile runs until they shape up.”
Finally, Mattis says he’ll reverse the no-hazing policy that Marines have been under since the nineties, saying that it’s “good ******* training.”
“Listen, I don’t like stupid ****,” said Mattis. “but if you’re one of my fine young men about to go on deployment and you have a boot who isn’t listening, I think it’s a valuable training tool to duct tape him to a bench, mentor on an emotional level with a wall-to-wall counseling session, or make him dig a hole to China.”
