Frequently Asked Questions

Why do service members wear dog tags?

According to the U.S. Department of Defense, unofficially, dog tags came about during the Civil War because soldiers were afraid no one would be able to identify them if they died. The first official request to outfit service members with ID tags came in 1899 at the end of the Spanish-American war when Army Chaplain Charles C. Pierce recommended the Army outfit all soldiers with the circular disks to identify those who were severely injured or killed in action. Dog tags are still issued to service members today. They're a reminder of America's efforts to honor all those who have served — especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Can a civilian wear dog tags?

Yes, civilians can wear military design dog tag necklaces. Today, men and women outside the armed forces wear uniquely-designed military-style dog tag necklaces to show gratitude, remember someone special or express their personalities, interests and beliefs.

Why does Shields of Strength create and sell dog tags?

The very first Shields of Strength necklace was a simple dog tag purchased at an Army Navy store then engraved with Scripture by a local Beaumont, Texas jeweler to wear as a reminder of God’s Truth. With the inspiration of that first dog tag, Shields of Strength grew into a thriving Christian business producing millions of Scripture-engraved dog tag necklaces now worn proudly by Christians worldwide, including athletes, members of the armed forces, first responders and family members of those who serve our communities and country.

Stainless steel and sterling silver are both great alloys. We prefer surgical stainless steel, as it does not tarnish or rust. However, as sterling silver is also a popular choice, we do offer items of this metal type.
