160705-N-IN729-125 SOUTH CHINA SEA (July 5, 2016) Machinery Repairman 1st Class (SW) Brandon Smith, from Fort Scott, Kansas, poses for a photo in the machine shop aboard the Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). Smith is one of the many Sailors who has dedicated time and skin to the artwork of tattoos. “It’s a little cliché but they really do tell my personal story,” said Smith. “A lot of unique experiences come with being a service member and our stories become complex at times. With tattoos we are able to record those experiences with a time-honored tradition. A lot of the work represents family and ideals that I have." Ronald Reagan, the Carrier Strike Group Five (CSG 5) flagship, is on patrol in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of responsibility supporting security and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
