''The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war,no matter how justified,shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation'' --George Washington--
Thanks for bringing that to my attention . I don’t particularly like her work, I would assume she is making some sort of Anti War statement with the skulls? The irony of it all is the millions of lives lost in War allows for freedom of expression even if we don’t like it, the same with demonstrations. I would imagine that she would thrive upon the added publicity we might give to her if we bring this to a wider audience, but it is also your democratic right to let her know what you think of her distasteful Tatt!

The medal ribbon she used happened to be from a medal that both my parents were awarded during WW2 and so I was a 'bit' upset about this.
