Does anyone have a decent screenshot of Hicks USCM tattoo? I need to figure out what font it is, so the clearer the better.:)

This is the only half-decent pic I have of it. You can barely make it out in the movie during his "Ultimate Badass" speech during the drop sequence.

Or blue biro? ;)

Actually that could be a colour reproduction issue there as the whole photo looks slightly unnatural in terms of colours.
