James Wagner, who everybody called "Daddy Wags", died 5 years ago, he used to run the biggest Marine Corps birthday at 10th and Oregon Avenue at Cookies Tavern. The
baton has been passed to me, I now run the outside of the Marine Corps birthday, I also run the toys for tots program and all our toys go to children of the 3rd Batallion, 13th Marines. This tattoo is in honor of Wags. It's a wreath, it says "Wags" at the bottom and USMC across the top.

There are only 126 honorary Marines, I'm one of them, it's a great honor.
