Staff Sgt. Ashleigh Buch puts on her swim cap before swims on Tuesday, February 7, 2017 at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska. Buch's tattoo has several layers and meanings. It includes the graphical representation of the Fibonacci Sequence which is referred to as the golden ratio because you find it in many things in nature. That symbol is placed inside Venus which is commonly used as a symbol for women. “It's kind of like finding that divinity in my femininity,” she said. On top of the circle is Phi which is the Greek letter used in mathematics to represent the golden ratio. “It has a lot of meaning to me because I’ve finally been able to embrace my inner femininity and womanhood and I feel like there's power and strength and divinity in that.”
