When SMA Dailey has finally picked his tattoo design we are asking him to come join us and soldiers from Fort Bliss for a day at “Do’s and Tattoos” in El Paso Texas. (Article 15 Clothing)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n

Army Times’ Facebook posts on Sergeant Major of the Army Dan Dailey’s decision to take suggestions on his ink garnered more than 1,700 comments. And while we continue to compile your responses \u2014 send your ideas, sketches or photos to mtan@armytimes.com<\/a> \u2014 one veteran-owned and -operated apparel maker has gone a step further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As announced in the above video, Article 15 Clothing<\/a> has offered to provide Dailey with his new tattoo, regardless of the design he chooses. The company has even included a sweetener, announced in the Facebook post accompanying the video<\/a> \u2014 should Dailey agree to the proposal, Article 15 chief operations officer Vince “Rocco” Vargas will get his own ink: Dailey’s face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vargas, a former active-duty Ranger who’s now a sergeant first class in the Army Reserve, is no stranger to service-themed body art. On the day of the video shoot, he got a tattoo in a place that likely wasn’t even on Dailey’s radar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
