scars and we have an obligation to assist them wherever possible.

The name
Love Tattoo was inspired by a poem written by law enforcement officer
Chuck Brisbin to honor a Veteran who returned home from Afghanistan
severely disfigured. Chuck brought his heartfelt poem to Richard and
asked if it could be put to music and perhaps used in a way as to
assist our wounded heroes. After working on the song and feeling the
emotion it generated, Richard knew it was destined to take on a life
of its own, and the Love Tattoo Foundation was born,
(www.lovetattoofoundation.org).
This foundation recognizes that the horror of war and military
service do not end with a tour of duty. Countless Veterans tell
stories of ostracism and further wounding when they return home. Many
feel they have nowhere to turn, and that is unacceptable.
