This very original design was sent to us by Jeremy Sparks, a Fireman/EMT-B & Fire Apparatus Driver Operator (FADO) with the Bluegrass Army Depot Fire & Emergency Services in Richmond, KY.

The tattoo was done by the owner, Angelo, of Tattoos Down Under 116 North 3rd Street Richmond, KY 40475 859-624-3664 (WWW.tattoosdownunder.com).

I had been thinking for a long time about getting another tattoo with a celtic cross before 9/11. I decided on the anniversary of 9/11 to get my tattoo after I found the celtic cross I wanted and decided the way I wanted the fireman to be depicted. I decided to put the "343" on the helmet front in honor of our FDNY Brothers but wanted the tattoo to stand for all the past & future firemen that have made their last call."
