Description
English: Sgt. 1st Class Robert Tackett, medical platoon sergeant, 1st Battalion, 185th Armor, stands next to the mural he painted on an old card table as a gift to his sensei (teacher), 8th Shodan Ryan Lowe, at Contingency Operating Base Speicher, March 29. The mural brings the spirit of this martial arts system to life, he said. "Well, as you can see, it is one big circle in the middle with six smaller circles surrounding it at the edges," Tackett said. "The large, center kanji translates to 'Bujikan Ninjutsu,' which is the name of my style of martial arts. The six smaller circles starting from the top and progressing in a clockwise manner translate to 'Earth,' 'Water,' 'Emptiness,' 'Scorpion,' 'Fire' and 'Air.'" The Scorpion kanji represents his sensei. Tackett plans on sending this mural to his wife back in California, who will then present it to Sensei Lowe in person.
