Old school

I did this for my pops 4 years ago. He had an appointment sometime in '05 to get tatted up, but he was a no show! He still talks about getting it done...just gives me a reason to bust his balls. He's scuuurrrred.

There's a lot of symbology goin' on in this one. The anchor represents the Navy, and then the lightning and quill extend this by representing the Cryptology rate. My father, his wife, my mother, my dad, me and my cousin were all CT's ...purely coincidence. In the back, connected to the anchor, is the Free Mason symbol. The names on the tat are that of his wife and mother. Lastly, we have the anchor chain. Each link represents a child.
