Lol

Nah this is a traditional tattoo with traditional meanings. Notice how it only uses primary colors. Tattoos pretty much started in the navy (another reason why its the best branch)

Swallows are known for their long migration patterns, so sailors get them tattooed to them to signify a safe voyage home.

It's also said if a sailor drowns, they will carry his soul to heaven

A sailor can get 1 swallow per 5000 nautical miles sailed. I could probably get like 10 of them but the two is fine i think

I've only really met one FC before. He complained that, when people heard "Fire Controlman" they usually thought he was some kind of firefighter.

Yeah, I have to admit, I'm kinda jealous of the tattoo regulations the Navy has. Y'all can get sleeves while serving. Must be nice

That happens at job interviews. I dont really complain tho

Im not one of those super patriotic veterans who let's their service define their whole character and persona. It ain't no big deal to me lol

I have four tattoos now but actually never got one until I got out of the navy

But yeah they dont gaf about tattoos as long as it's not something offensive like a swastika or something
