It was the ring of bullets that first grabbed my attention when I spotted him in Penn Station:
As a soldier in New York City's 69th Infantry Regiment in the New York Army National Guard, Earl has had the honor and privilege of serving in our armed forces overseas.
But, like any one of these brave men and women can tell you, they have seen their share of sorrow when they have lost fellow soldiers in the war in Iraq and Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.
Earl's way to honor them has been to inscribe on his flesh "For the Fallen," and the initials of those that have died for their country, each bullet representing someone he knew.
On his right arm, he has this tribal piece with a military inscription:
The phrase "Mess with the Best, Die like the Rest" is one of those military slogans that is designed to inspire the soldier and intimidate the enemy.
All work was by Mark Madden at Madd Grafix Tattoo Shop in Buffalo, New York.
Thanks to Earl for his duty to this country and for sharing his memorial ink with us here on Tattoosday!
