Just wanted to submit my tattoo. My tattoo artist did an amazing job of capturing the things I love. I have the flag over my heart because I truly love this country. The Eagle, Globe & Anchor is over the flag to protect it, I replaced the continents with a bald eagle because the freedom we provide is global. I served with 9th comm. Bn. as a crypto tech (2881) my loyalty to the corps will always be through my service as a crypto tech hence the 2881 has replaced the “Semper Fidelis” in the ribbon. Thank you Sgt. Grit for providing an outstanding place for Marines, new and old, to converge. Cpl. Kirby read more

Here is a picture of my new tattoo, been wanting to get it for years and finally went out and got it after being out since ’96. It was done by “Irish” at Atomic Tattoos in Largo, FL.

Sgt. Grit, After 20 yrs of having the basic “USMC” on my arm I finally was able to add the piece below it and touch up the original. I enjoy your web-site and all the letters and submissions from fellow Marines and family members. Keep up the good work. Semper Fi!

Here is my first tattoo I got to show support for my son and I wanted him to know how proud I am of him. He did not think I would go through with it. But when I texted him a picture he was really excited. He said he can’t wait to see it in person when he comes home for Christmas. read more

I got this right after I got out in 2006 it took 3 hours to do only one sitting it was great. LCpl Matthew R Vasak 3051
