Tattoo you: Know the AFI before you get ink

A woman from San Diego, Calif., poses for a photo at the Pacific Ink & Art Expo, Blaisdell Exhibition Hall, Honolulu, Hawaii, Aug. 3, 2013. At the bottom right of the flower design can be seen faces that she said were Polynesian-style protectors. After 9/11, many military personnel being deployed into combat zones were prompted to get similar tattoos, believing they provided an extra shield of protection. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt.
