The U.S.M.C. came in 73. 30 years later my son thought it was time to finish the original. D.I. Donald or Devil Duck? Either way, I have not seen another quite like it.

Semper Fi.

When I received my discharge from the Corps (worst mistake I ever made) in '73 I moved in with my best friend from my unit (Drum & Bugle Corps). He got a Marine tattoo in '75 & tried to convince me to do the same. Well, as things go, I got married and my wife told me that if I got a tattoo, I could move back in with my friend. Years went by. By this time I had two great sons that wanted to fulfill my wish. For my 50th birthday they surprised me by throwing me in the car and stopping at a great tattoo parlor. To make a long story short, I borrowed one of your logos and now I have a great symbol of the Corps on my right shoulder. My wife knew what our sons were going to do and actually APPROVED! She likes it and I love it. I hope that you don't mind if I used your design, but what the hell, it's too late now. Semper Fi! read more

Sgt. Grit, Thanks for the reciprocal link to my international survival guide in your links page. I have also attached a couple of my tattoos. Semper Fi !

Here is a couple of tattoos I'm real proud of. I had these done about 4 months ago, about 35 years after I was discharged. I love the reaction I get when I have a tank top on or my swimming suit. I was in the 1st Marine Brigade out of Kanaheo Bay in Oahu. We bugged out for Viet Nam and all 10,000 of us joint up with the 3rd Marines and landed on red beach March 1965. I was a gunner on a 81mm motor, mos 0341 and love every bit of it. I'm 56 years old and couldn't be prouder – I'm as gung ho now as I was back in 2/63 when I joined. Semper Fi to all. read more

Been out over twenty years. Wanted something a little different than the traditional Eagle, Globe and Anchor.

Hey Motivator of Motivator's,

Here is a tattoo for your BS page, This was originally a bulldog just like 75% of all Marines get down at ITB/MCT in Lejuene only I got mine out at 29 Stumps. When I got out in 2000 I decided I wanted something bigger and better, so I sat down with my tattoo artist and came up with this original cover up. You won't find this hanging on a wall in any tattoo parlor this is hand drawn and retired OOH RAH!!! and SEMPER FI!! and for those FEW who know what this means YAT YAS!!! read more
