What's the worst motivational tattoo you've seen in the military?2022-10-31T11:28:43-04:002022-10-31T11:28:43-04:00COL Randall C.7958527<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Well, I guess you can consider it a tattoo in the sense of "body art".<br /><br />During my time at Ft. Bliss in the early 90s, there was an NCO in our unit that decided to brand the unit patch onto his upper right arm. <br /><br />Sounds pretty motivational, right?<br /><br />That was until he realized that after it was branded on it turned out to be backwards and upside down... <br /><br />queue the belly laughs.Response by COL Randall C. made Oct 31 at 2022 12:50 PM2022-10-31T12:50:57-04:002022-10-31T12:50:57-04:00SFC Joe S.

Clayton7966879<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Early 1956, Keesler AFB, Biloxi, MS. A wild night in Biloxi, a lot of 17-year-old illegal, but disregarded by law enforcement, drinking and a visit to a tattoo parlor with several other enlistees. Everyone else gets large body defacements of Panthers, dirty words and other hopefully masculine verbiage. I elect 'to get my nickname "Sonny" on my left forearm about midway. Unfortunately, the tattoo parlor artist couldn't spell, didn't give a damn or was fiendishly evil. A few days later when the spelling could be seen clearly, I noted that I was scarred for life with the misspelled "SUnny" that thankfully has faded to a dark and reminding episode in my life. The only thing good I remember from that night was earlier in the evening I had been very fortunate to have tickets to a performance at the airmen's club by "Little Jimmy Dickens" of Country Music fame. His performance was the only motivational factor surrounding that night.Response by CMSgt Elbert E.
