Soldiers serve and sacrifice so that others might have freedom to live in peace.  The Army defines selfless sacrifice as putting the welfare of the nation, the Army and your subordinates before your own.  This value is found in the Bible.  Jesus said, "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”  Jesus sacrificed his life so that all who believe and accept Him as Lord and Savior will have eternal life. The Army dog tag necklace is engraved with “I will be strong and courageous, I will not be terrified or discouraged, for the Lord my God is with me wherever I go,” Joshua 1:9.  The military style dog tag measures 1.95 inches tall, 1.08 inches wide, and .09 inch thick, and comes with a 24 inch ball chain made.  Chain is made with the highest grade stainless steel containing zero nickel, commonly referred to as “Surgical Grade” which does not irritate skin and never tarnishes.  Dog Tag is made from high quality zinc.  Easy to clean with warm water, mild soap, and soft cloth.  Shields of Strength items are created by our internal design team and inscribed with Scripture.  We 100% guarantee every item and will stand behind it for a lifetime.  If you ever have a problem, contact our customer support team, they will take care of you.
