I don't really recall getting dog tags.
Were they still being issued in the seventies?

through 88-92 is all I know for certain

I must have got some then.
No idea what happened to them.

second hand knowledge perspective - i have a hazy memory of a claim that trrops in vietnam threw their dogtags away because of the jingling and clanking noises

something about that doesnt seem right to me, but the thought is there

duct tape was just sitting there..
must have been a 'journalist' who wrote an article..
...from a hotel room in Saigon.

lol

knew there was something fishy about that idea

my chain is run through paracord w/ the filiments pulled, and there are rubber bumpers around em

yup...must have been a journalist...sowing FUD.

Yes USMC 76 - 80 and we had them
