    Description

    A matching, named set of First World War period aluminum dog tags in issued condition. These are connected by a short length of cotton cord. Both originally had the wearer's full name and serial number hand-stamped on one side. There seems to have been some surface damage to both sides, however. Part of the information is now scraped off. Does not appear to have been by the intentional use of a tool - perhaps scraped against a hard surface? Either way, definitely original and a matched pair.
    Please check out my other Ebay listings for more interesting, rare and unusual military insignia, berets, uniforms and field kit. I have been collecting international militaria for nearly forty years, focusing primarily on camouflage combat uniforms, elite unit berets, and special forces/airborne/elite unit insignia, so you can bid with confidence. As founder/director of the International Camouflage Uniform Society (ICUS), long-time member of Chute & Dagger (airborne/special forces insignia society), and creator of Camopedia.org, the international camouflage pattern database, I am always pleased to hear from other collectors with similar interests who wish to share information, help with identification, arrange trades, etc. All items in my auctions are described accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and are believed to be genuine unless specifically stated otherwise. All items are sold as is, and all sales are final. Contact me if you have further questions, but please be polite and articulate if you want an answer. Thanks for looking and best of luck!
    PLEASE NOTE: Failing to pay for any auction that you win will automatically place you on a list to block future bids on my auctions, which is permanent. You will also receive a non-payment strike from Ebay. Please honor your bids and pay for the auction, or do not bid. Likewise, anyone leaving negative or neutral feedback will be permanently banned from bidding in the future. If you have any issues at all with an item you purchase please CONTACT ME and I will make every effort to work it out to your satisfaction. Failing to make an effort to work out a solution is a poor reflection on the customer and justification for refusal to do business with you again.
