shevy Posted April 4, 2020 Share #1 Posted April 4, 2020 Question, can anyone tell my why info on this dog tag has been "X" out? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cperkins510 Posted April 4, 2020 Share #2 Posted April 4, 2020 Paul Braddocks dog tag manual indicates that the AEF regulations for what was on the tags changed in June, 1918 and this change was issued through a new general order. The Xed out info would have been rank and unit, usually. Soldiers who had the old style tag were expected to remove that extra info to conform with the new order.

AustinO Posted April 4, 2020 Share #3 Posted April 4, 2020 The rank would have been Cpl, and unit 326th Infantry - but I'm assuming you already had those details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
