Has your military experience inspired you to get a tattoo?

No. Nor has anything else.

I have enough identifying marks.

Got mine decades after leaving of the Imjin Scout badge I was awarded though while stationed in Korea there was a tattoo place that I was dying to get one from that I walked pass nearly everyday. Too scared of catching something though and getting an Art. 15 for damaging government property.

I've got about a 3rd of my body tattoo'd. All of my ink comes from my experiences and the people and places that have touched my life. In my case, I'm an artist first and all of my tat's are pieces I've drawn. They are a record of my life for everyone to see. Likely, I will never be done adding to my body the Bold Print of my Life. Likely, many people here are like me. ...and no, none of mine were defined or designed in regards to the military or my deployments. Those will be reserved to the days of my retirement, when that part of my life is done and I can go back, look deep into what stood out in this chapter and I can make that part more Bold.

Yes, though mines unfinished. I had to get mine after my contract ended. The USMC changed their tattoo policy right before I figured out what I wanted so i was forced to wait. Got my next tattoo figured out when I get this first done, too.

My military experience inspired me to get a bachelor degree, not a tattoo that will look like hell in 10 years!
Nevertheless, I did get a Caduceus on my arm for being in Medical Brigade.
*GotOneAndDone*

One time in my career, was tempted to get one. About 60 of us enlisted were selected for a commissioning program (MECEP) that turns enlisted into officers. The guys got to talking and noted that it would be our last chance to get tattoos because it was frowned upon for officers to get them. So a few guys went and got tattoos... Am sure that a part of their motivation for doing such was so the troops would recognize their prior enlisted service, and while the thought was tempting, I felt that I would be doing it for the wrong reasons and so managed to avoid that temptation.

I got 2 before entering the Service, and 2 while in. I love them- but I hate the stares and the millions of questions that usually come with them. However- it is pretty hilarious when it is time for the APFT and I am wearing Army PT gear and All my Marine Corps tattoos are visible. All in all- I like my Tattoos, glad I got them, and they serve as a constant reminder of what I earned!

None on my body. Plenty of scars though.

I have a Caduceus on my Chest, a Mermaid on my right calf(her trident is an Afro pick), and U.S NAVY (right forearm) CORPSMAN (left forearm) that can be seen from fifty yards when my arms are crossed. Yeah, I drank ALL the Kool aid and asked for seconds.

Tango!

Did not and could not in the unit I was in when active, but remember a couple guys getting them and being moved to the 82nd line units. For the many years that have gone by, I've continually thought about getting one, and it grew and grew. I am planning on getting it over my entire left shoulder later this fall - a culmination of things to cover in one big tattoo, service, God, family, and patriotism/country. Design still work in progress, with my wife leading the artistry.
