"Dog Tags"



Used by military services 'round the World
A means to identify the wounded, and the dead
Have been around and used since times of old
A simple/efficient way to sort-out bodies cold

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Since dog tags are used for identification purposes, active duty soldiers are required to wear them at all times while in the field, on an airplane or overseas. Dogs tags must be worn around the neck at those times.... However, it is generally considered in poor taste to keep dog tags visible in civilian clothes.
