Inboard Eagle Globe and Anchor Tats

Sgt Grit,
Here are a couple of pics of my Eagle Globe and Anchor tats on my shoulders facing inboard. Good to go. They were a little expensive, but what the hey - Once a Marine Always a Marine! unless your a shit bird and they used to say Eat the Apple ---- the Corps.

Out with the Old - In with the New

I had the bulldog originally done in Oceanside in 1969.In august 2003 I had it refreshed and added to just before our 1st Bn 1st Marines 1965 -1971 reunion in Washington DC . Work was done By Jim Hawk of Hawk's Tattoos in Galesburg, Illinois. He gave the old dog a much needed facelift and added the First of the First in the campaign ribbon colors along with the 69 71.

This Tattoo is Represents the Marine NCO when I was promoted I was so excited while on leave I had a set of chevrons from my chariles so that is an exact replica. I have seen lots of the gunny stripes, but no SGT so this is a original put it on for every motivated SGT to see. 1995 -1999

USMC on Army Base

This is a tattoo I got while stationed at Marine Corps Detachment, Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. I loved the looks I got walking around an Army base with an oorah tat. Now I'm a 5711 at 3rd MAW/MWSS-371 Yuma, Arizona.

The Eagle Flies

My name is Chris Tennant and i'm a recruit waiting to ship out to Parris Island. I leave June 8th, 2004 with the MOS of 2111 Small Arms Repair. This is a tattoo I just had done, it isn't related to the Marine Corps itself but I thought maybe you would want to put it on your site anyway. I plan to get many more including some USMC work done after I graduate boot camp.

Great Devil Dog!

Here is one of three tats that I have, this one is an original designed by myself along with Drew's Tattoos from upstate New York. It speaks for Itself. Semper Fi Brothers.

Homeland Security

On 9-11-01, I sat in the station auditorium. Ironically enough we were having a "rapid deployment" brief to advise the Marines in their families what would happen if we had to deploy. We didn't know about the terrorist attacks until halfway through the briefing. The entire base went to lock down and most Marines got ready for war. I always wanted a Marine Corps tattoo but it had to be something unique. I was not until that day that I knew what I wanted. I am no longer on active duty but I continue the fight while work for the Department of Homeland Security.
