Brad Quentin at AMG in 1974.
Swallow tattoos were popular with sailors as they represented freedom and returning home safely. In nature, swallows never venture far from the ocean shoreline. If a sailor spotted one flying near the ship, he knew he was close to land...and home.
On Vintage NAVY Men the swallow Tattoo can denote 5000 Ocean Miles served on a ship. So 2 Swallows on a Vintage Sailor would be 10000 miles Ocean miles served.
