Dog Tags: History & Modern Picture

Kane, Shawn D., 435-19-9382, B Pos, Catholic is an example of a five liner old-school military dog tag. They were given to all the soldiers since in the war field all men are equal and only their dog tags showed their identity. A ball chain and a couple of joint or separate stainless steel plates with vital information about the personnel embossed on them thats all a dog tag originally was. The modern picture actually takes it a level above with Personalized dog tags.

Today dog tags are a fashion accessory, probably the most preferred piece of jewelry for men although it isnt hard to imagine girls wearing them too. There are a wide range of themes used by dog tag makers such as vintage style, military style, and even military wife style. The themes arise out of the message that is to be inscribed on the discs which too are available in shape variations. Today dog tags fall under the category of silver disc necklaces since they are available in sterling silver too.

The messages are the main focus in this kind of jewelry which is one of the biggest reasons for their popularity today. Messages can be regarding games such as Call of Duty - Battlefield, or displaying geek messages like We Geeks Rule the Future etc. Simple one-liners, use of symbols, embossing pictures of loved ones, clever quotes, secret friendship codes, sub-culture logos on the tags say a lot about the person wearing it. This is how many people extend their persona to their silver dog tag necklace which is usually reasonably priced and takes around a week or ten days to arrive.

Dog tags are probably the only kind of accessories that are unisex plus can be used for animals too. Animal tags especially for pet cats and dogs can be found over a range of themes. For instance, a ferocious dogs tag can say Slicer, Out Hunting or Keep the Cats away, while a precious dogs tag may say Lost! Call 345-87-234 or Help me Home. Many pets have dog tags as creative as acting like dating baits while others can be plain classic with the pets name and owners address.
