What is the main purpose of dog tags for military use?
The main purpose of dog tags for military use is to identify casualties. 1 of the 2 dog tags stay with the remains of the soldier and are not removed except in cases of the need to temporarily inter the soldier. If only one tag is found with the fallen soldier an identical dog tag is than created. If the soldier is found with both tags missing, two tags which indicate unidentified.
What is printed officially on military dog tags?
In the 1990s, the U.S. Army stopped using the term dog tags, replacing it with the designation ID tags.
A persistent rumor is that debossed (imprinted with stamped in letters) dog tags were issued from World War II till the end of the Vietnam War and that currently the U.S. Armed Forces is issuing embossed (imprinted with raised letters) dog tags. In actuality, the U.S. Armed Forces issues dog tags with both types of imprinting, depending on the machine used at a given facility. The military issued 95% of their identification tags up until recently (within the past 10 years) with debossed text.
The U.S. Armed Forces typically carry two identical oval dog tags containing:
