I wish there were photos of the tattoos so we here could decipher what they said..

I found a company in Turkey that manufactures clothing, including underwear under the name Bozz. Turkey and Cuba have had trade agreements since the 50s.

I too would like to see the tattoos. A picture is worth 1000 words. Indio refers to the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
