ALMAR,
I recently discovered one of my Dad's dog tags. He served on active duty from 1940 until his retirement as a 1st Sgt in 1963. He passed away in 1986. The dog tag have a roundish shape with small chain holes on each side. The dog tag is stamped as follows - 1st line his first name, 2nd line his middle and last names, 3rd line his serial number (6 digits), 4th line reads "T 12-41-0-", 5th line is blank, 6th line "USMC" is centered. Can anyone confirm line 3 is his serial number, and can anyone decipher line 4? I'm guessing this may be his dog tag from WWII. My email address is navairmike@aol.com.
