When you make a commitment to the military or a person who is in the military, you know there are many sacrifices that have to be made. We salute these women and their families, and thank them for their service. And we are also inspired by their tattoos honoring their service or those they love in the military. There are so many gorgeous designs showing pride.

Whether you are a service woman yourself or the wife, daughter, or partner of a loved one who serves, these military tattoos on women are simply beautiful ... and hardcore. Prepare to be inspired.

This gorgeous tattoo is in progress, but even unfinished it is an incredible piece of art. I love how tattoo artist Edwin Shaffer of Big Bear Tattoo nestled the ID tags within the flowers.
