Stationed at Fort Campbell Kentucky back in the early middle fifties ... the home of the 508th, the 82th, as well as a bevy of other Airborne units using the dropping zones to finish their Airborne training .....you can bet the numerous tattoo parlors outside the base was enjoying hefty profits from nailing proud paratroopers with first tattoo images to show other guys and girlfriends their bravery depicting them in flight drifting from flying aircraft to ground level.....
Graymane was lucky. I heard enough complaints from my father, who got tattooed on his upper arm at an early age (I can only guess, like most who get them and strongly regret it later on, only to discover the ink don't come off quite as easily as it went on. So, following my dad's warnings, I declined the ink thereby making my jumps go unnoticed. (That is if one bases tattoos solely on seeing them burned into one's skin.)
