There's only two dedicated attack helicopters - the AH64 and the AH1, with the AH64 being used by the Army, and the AH1 being used by the Marine Corps and some Army National Guard units. Of the two, the AH64 would be more commonplace, as the Army is a much larger branch, and fields a much larger helicopter force than the Marines do. According to Wikipedia, the US has 741 AH64 helicopters, and 167 AH-1W helicopters (although it doesn't give any mention of how many of the older, single engine models ordered by the Army may still be in service with the Army National Guard).

Nothing, the tattoo artists normally taughten then skin so that the needle will not pierce any veins or anything. A professional tattoo artist knows about how deep to go with the needle. The only bad thing is, because this area of your body is always used for mobility, touch up work at a later stage might be needed. Also if you are in a professional workplace, think about that before you get any visible tattoos as most companies have a dress code about visible tattoos. Tattoos are still seen as radical in workplace. Otherwise, if this is what you really want, tattoo away!! ;-)

No Roger Staubach did not play for Quantico. He was stationed at U.S. Marine Corps Base Albany Georgia. There was a rumor that he might transfer to NAS Pensacola and play for the Pensacola Goshawks, the Navy and Marine Corps. team of flight students. He was scheduled to be assigned to the Naval Hospital at Quantico. Because the Vietnam War was in progress, word got out from someone believed to be the backfield coach and the resultant publicity caused reassignment. Favoritism for a football star would have given a bad impression at that time.

Roger did not play for Quantico, but he did play for the Pensacola Goshawks in 1967, a year after I played there.
