I just recently graduated boot camp and wanted to get my EGA that I’ve waited so long for.

Just thought my fellow jarheads would enjoy this. The tribal with the incorporated Ka-Bar is of my own design. The Ka-Bar is tattooed EXACTLY to scale . . . I made sure of this! You can also see SEMPER FI down the tricep on my right arm. I also have a tattoo of a Bald Eagle’s head with “USMC” underneath it on my left shoulder . . . will send photo of that one later. More to come – – still want an EGA somewhere! Sgt. Derek Holmen 1995-1999 read more

Sgt. Grit, It took me quite a few years to determine what I wanted as a USMC tattoo. I served my country for over 4 years and was honorably discharged after breaking my back in two places. The one thing that I loved about the Corps was the ability to shoot. I earned my 4th Award Expert badge so this tattoo was fitting. L/Cpl read more
