There are some great ones out there...and some terrible ones.
For me -
Best - A guy incorporated a battle scar into a "freedom isn't free" tattoo.
Worst - A female went out on family day from Basic and got our BCT Company logo tattooed on her bicep. D-1/48th for LIFE!

You deserve an up vote just for admitting that in a public forum.

Have seen plenty of great military tattoos. However the worst I have seen are military tats on spouses. (IE "Proud Army Wife of -insert name here-" in the typical tramp stamp area)

Sir, I remember a few years back when I was a 1SG at Fort Huachuca. One of my battle buddies had an AIT Soldier in his company who had a scroll that said "Infantry" on his forearm. When my battle asked him if he was prior service, the PVT responded with "no, I couldn't get MOSQd so I had to reclass." He got the tattoo before he washed out...

And then since I have a "fail," I feel obligated to have a "win" tattoo story. Below is the tattoo I got after my Change of Responsibility.

The was a 2nd LT in Airborne school who went out during tower week and got huge wings tattooed across his back.
After his first jump the harness dug into the tattoo causing two things...
1) it ripped open the skin and screwed up the tattoo
2) prevented his from harnessing up
So he gets booted from BAC with a no wings except the scarred up and screwed up pair on his back..
