I had a boss back in the 1970’s who was a Marine in the Korean War. One day, we were playing golf in hot weather and were wearing shorts. For the first time, I noticed a tattoo on his ankle. When I remarked that I didn’t see him as a tattoo type guy, he said he wasn’t- the North Koreans had given it to him when he was a POW. I felt like a turd and apologized, but he said no problem, there’s no way you could have known.
