Metal dog tags are also military identification tags. Each U.S. military wears a metal dog tag on its chest. It is a mandatory configuration for the U.S. military's active duty and is used for identification of soldiers. It is a set of (two) stainless steel sheets, both of which are 5cm X 3cm in size. A 24-inch stainless steel long neck chain, while the secondary card has a 4-inch short neck chain. Both sheets have black mufflers (of course you can ask for different colors of mufflers), which is a must-have for military lovers.


"metal dog tag" is an informal but common term for a specific type of identification tag worn by military personnel. The tags' primary use is for the identification of dead and wounded soldiers; as such, they have personal information about the soldiers written on them, and convey essential basic medical information such as the soldier's blood type and history of inoculations. They often indicate religious preference as well.


Application of metal dog tag

(1)Military use

 

The metal dog tag is a specific type of identification brand worn by military personnel. It is an informal but universal brand among military personnel. The main purpose of the metal dog tag is to confirm the identity of soldiers at the temple. They will write personal and medical information, such as a soldier's blood type and vaccination history. metal dog tags can also be engraved with different patterns to show personal religion, hobbies, etc.

 

metal dog tags are usually made of metal. It can be single-sided or double-sided to save all kinds of information. After the soldiers died unfortunately, the tags on the bodies were purposefully collected for the purpose of notifying the troops or notifying their families after the war. And if fighting conditions prevent people from collecting metal dog tags, the metal dog tags remain on the body.
