The First Part of the Tattoo

Well, it's done!  All of the line work is finished, and now I have to let it heal.  Once it's healed I'll have the blues, gold, and white added to it.

So, what is it??  It's the Presidential Service Badge that I was awarded in the 1980s, when I was stationed with White House Communications Agency.  How cool is that??



Did it hurt??  Yes, and no...  It was more annoying than painful, and there's just a mild burning sensation now.  Hank was very explicit about my aftercare instructions.  And he was so patient with all those stars!!

  1. No it's not cool! The dumbest ink I've ever seen.

    1. You're entitled to your opinion; that's why I spent 15 years in the Army, defending your right to disagree...
