5 minutes prior to TAPS or lights out
It means that the lights will be out in 5 minutes. So basically in the navy it means get ready for bed
It could mean they are in the Navy, or it could be symbolic for stability. An anchor with roses could represent a stable relationship.
It is a proven scientific fact that receiving a tattoo will not get you pregnant..... however, if you are pregnant at the time you get a tattoo, it will not cause your baby harm...
In my experience it means "warrior" - Although, there are not many active "warriors" who would get this kind of tattoo and, therefore, give themselves away to the enemy. By the way "warrior" = Navy Seal (as you might recall the Seal insignia).
For many veteran's, a star tattoo on their hands means that they got through a difficult time in their lives. A veteran wearing a star tattoo can also mean that they shined during their time served.
i don't know about the navy but the army you defiantly can my sister has.
Some of it will depend on where the tattoo is and what it is of. Typically a tattoo is not going to be a problem. If it shows when in uniform it might be an issue. If it is inflammatory, it would be a red flag.
I think it means being in the navy or being a sailor...
a Polar Bear
It's a Navy custom aboard ships...at 9:55 the watchboard comes on the 1MC and says Tattoo Tattoo, lights out in 5 minutes. At 10pm, he/she then says Taps Taps, maintain silence about the decks. Taps.
Old navy tattoo "pig below the knee" means safety at sea. In other words, if you fall overboard you will be saved from death or drowning.

Yes, although not in certain places (e.g face) or with anything too obscene.
Time usually does affect, how hard it is to take a tattoo off. Especially if the size of a tattoo, is pretty big and might have soaked into your skin over time.
Three nautical stars on a tattoo often mean that someone has lost a friend or family member at sea. This tattoo is seen on members of the Navy as well as on civilians.
Not all of them. Kendall is the only one that has a tattoo and the rest does not.
For me, the rose symbolizes femininity, yet the anchor symbolizes my tour in the U.S. Navy!
