Navel piercings

[TanTan]

Ok so Im just wondering if I'll be able to keep my piercing in. Its a bellybutton ring so I'm thinking it shouldn't be an issue because no one would see it. Of course I'll take it out if I have to, this is more important. But I'd like to keep it if possible. I hear its hard to re pierce because of the scar tissue.

You'll have to take it out for bootcamp. People will see it and you will be reported most likely.

How would anyone see it though?

You strip down and change into the underwear and pt clothes they issue shortly after arrival. Someone will notice at some point when you don't have a shirt on, if not that first night.

You also shower with 50 to 100 other girls at the same time. Someone will say something.

Not allowed. Even after finishing the basic training & schooling, the only time to wear piercings is while wearing civilian clothes outside of the base.
