TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: How the top military hospital is helping tattooed troops

If you have tattoos you know how personal that ink can be. A lot, if not all, tattoos usually have some sort of personal story behind them. So to lose that can be awful.

That’s what a lot of troops go through if they get wounded and lose a limb that might have one of their tattoos on it. To be honest, something I never even thought of since I don’t have tattoos.

But now Walter Reed National Medical Center has figured out a way to transfer those lost tattoos onto their prosthetic artificial limb. Just an incredible idea that I’m sure means a lot to many of these people who have lost sentimental pieces.
