” I have never seen a service member of the Armed Forces wear their dog tags outside of their shirt and not get in trouble for it. Even then, the only time I’ve ever seen service members have them out is when someone was joking around. Being a veteran of the Iraq war, I have worn dog tags for a long time, because I was required to wear them during service. Because of this, I am not quite sure how I feel about nonmilitary civilians wearing dog tags on campus. If they were military personnel, I would know exactly what to say to them: “Put the dog tags back in your shirt and stop being inappropriate. By Sebastain Gould The philosophers I’ve most admired were veterans of war, and they reflected upon their service in their philosophy. Hollywood, I suppose, has created the image that they should be worn for the world to see.Source: The Stanford Daily

I purchased a samurai sword a few years ago and these tags were wrapped around the handle of the sword. This guy must have been a combat veteran based on how I obtained the dog tags. I recently sold the sword and the guy who purchased it didn't want the tags and asked me if I would knock $100 off the price if he would let me keep the dogtags. The tags are in nice used condition and retain the original chain or suspension necklace. Up for bid is a very nice pair of original WWII USMC dogtags. I of course made the deal and am now left with the tags. Thanks for looking and please be sure to view my other current and upcoming eBay listings for more antiques and vintage military related items including a nice WWII fixed bale officers helmet.
