U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Patrick Lewis, 20th Equipment Maintenance Squadron aircraft structural maintenance mechanic, displays a tattoo of his father’s bicycle at Sumter, South Carolina, Oct. 10, 2019. Some Team Shaw Airmen have followed the footsteps of warriors who came before them, obtaining tattoos which serve as tokens of protection, symbols of their service and reminders of those they have left behind.
