History of the 337th Engineer Combat Battalion
#37

Hmmmm, not sure. I knew they made different tags for the guys, and from the kind issued, you could determine when they were received. But I've never heard of re-issuing.

 

I will have to ask one of my historian friends about that.

 

 

Added later...

For instance, you can tell when my dad was inducted from the type of dog-tags he received. He still had his after the war. He served from 1943 to Nov 1945. Never a re-issue.
