maxtor Posted January 26 Share #1 Posted January 26 Dear colleagues , I live in Belgium and I found an identification tag by chance and I would like to get help to find out a little more about who it was. His name is ADAMS ARENCCE and the back number is 148941 or 148944 any suggestion is welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan H. Posted January 26 Share #2 Posted January 26 This is a World War I ID or "dog" tag. I'd suggest that you post it there or in the research area for assistance on the former owner. Best Regards, Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinO Posted January 26 Share #3 Posted January 26 The name is probably Lawrence Adams, or Adam S Lawrence. I could find no one on transports with a similar service number. I also suspect there is a digit obscured at the end under corrosion. 148941x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxtor Posted January 26 Author Share #4 Posted January 26 I could try to clean it a little more but I'm afraid of damaging it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

También sospecho que hay un dígito oscurecido al final por la corrosión. 148941x the final number is 4. 148944 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
268th C.A. Posted January 26 Share #6 Posted January 26 Odd. WW1 issue tags were aluminum, this one is rusty, and I don't see a hole in for the neck cord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Las etiquetas de la Primera Guerra Mundial eran de aluminio, esta está oxidada y no veo un agujero para el cordón del cuello. If it is made of aluminum and you cannot see the hole because it is covered with sand and sediment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
