What is the Vietnam 1967-69 Dog Tags (Army) format?
Vietnam 1967-69 Dog Tags (Army) have 5 lines of debossed (indented) text on a 2" x 1.125" matte steel dog tag, rolled edge down & hole on left with the following format :
Superscript numbers (i.e. 17) denote character column.
- [Surname]
- [First Name] [Middle Initial]
- [Service Prefix][Service Number]
- [Blood Type] [Rh Factor] [Social Security Number]
- [Religion]
Includes both an army service number and a social security number (with dashes) as it was a transition time when the army switched to using a servicemen's SSN for identification instead of issuing a service number. Notched dog tags were standard issue until December 1964. The Department of Defense officially switched to dog tags without notches in early 1965. However, military bases with older notched-style tags in inventory still issued them for a while from 1965 up until 1966.
