My son Wyatt took this picture off the deck of their ship while they were out doing their thing the other day. He also got a tattoo across his back shoulder area of a Anchor Chain and in each link he is putting an image of a special place he has traveled. The Swallows represent 5,000 nautical miles a sailor has traveled, the picture of the Tattoo was taken about a month ago and he had over 18,000 N Miles (which I guess is not a lot for veteran sailors) and when he gets back from this mission he will have over 20K and another Swallow. Tats

Fancy schmanzy! Great picture and very nice ink. God bless and protect your boy and his shipmates.

I got my 2 and only 2 tattoos when I was 19 an in the military nearly 30 years ago. I don’t want any more, but I had one touched up last year and it looks way better because it had faded. They make me remember what I was doing and I never regret having them. The funny thing was when I went into the shop to get the touch up, all of the 20 year olds working there really thought my tats I got back in the 80s were cool and they said they were “old school” and tools pics of them....lol
