My most cherished possession is my dad's dog tag from WWII. He was 42nd Rainbow Division.
@joernone6 жыл бұрын
The notch was not for putting the dog tag in the mouth of the dead. The notch was used to keep the blank dog tag aligned on the machine while the letters were being stamped into the metal.

Thank you, for saying what we were all thinking. Funny how misconceptions spread like wild fire. That tale about the notch and the teeth never made sense to me as a kid.

@hochspannunglebensgefahr53392 жыл бұрын
That’s a myth. The notch was there so that the machine used to transfer the information could hold the tags in place. It essentially stamped the dog tag on paper whilst covered in ink so that the info on the tags could be added to the records. Around the time of late Vietnam, dog tags had no notch because the machines didn’t need them.

It always blows my mind, that people are passing by grandpas like him and other veterans daily and have no idea, that they were flying in bombers 80 years ago, risking their lives everyday and fighting for life and death, in the worst conditions.

@dangermouse69div4 жыл бұрын
The notch in a dogtag was used in the stamping machine, nothing at all to do with going in a soldiers mouth, this was just toilet rumours. If it was to hold a mouth open it would have had a grove on both sides to stop it slipping out.
@R3TROSKULL Жыл бұрын
They didn’t put them in your teeth. They actually had the notch to accurately print the do tags

It is necessary to change the name of the dog tag to G-Tag, G does not mean the dogs of war, but the strength of the soldier and the power of the fall when landing on the territory...

I Salute this Hero. But the notch in the dog tags is for graves registration--who after battles etc. pick up or get all the dead bodies, and it started in WW2 where graves registration had a large hand neld machine like a credit card slider that copied the dog tag onto paper, the notch was to properly fit in the copier machine.And yes the 1`dog` tag`1s 1did ``som1eti11me1s go in 1te boot laces or mouth if needed to be.
