The tattoo is the Arabic word “infidel,” not sure why the Qatari soldiers would have a problem with it seeing as he is an infidel. Pathetic the owner would cave to their demands.

According to the vet’s blog — Adventures of a Broken Soldier — he is an avid skydiver with almost 300 jumps under his belt and was at Skydive Lake Wales on Wednesday, where soldiers from the country of Qatar were also being trained.
Bryant has a tattoo on the back of his right calf of the Arabic word for “Kafir.” […]
As for his tattoo, Bryant writes: “The Muslim’s from Qatar saw that tattoo and complained to the drop-zone. Once they did so I was called to the back office and asked to cover it up by the owner.”
