 | This first tatoo is on my left bicep. I call it "My 19 year old heart
with Uncle Sam's knife going through it".
This signifies my young
person going to Vietnam, and dying, and someone different coming home.
The handle is made up of my (CIB) Combat Infantryman's Badge... with the
years I spent in Nam on each side of it. The bullet in the handle signifies the M-16 bullet, and on the top of the handle is the Army Air
Medal... a real cool looking medal with an eagle in a diving attack move,
with lightning bolts in each talon. Unfortunately, this was too much
detail for that part of the tattoo.
