Do you wear your dog tags?

Although I'm now retired I remember the dogtag being a required accessory in the Infantry Units I was assigned to. I inspected troops daily, and on the rare occasion they were absent there were reprisals. It may be that the optempo made it essential daily wear for us but in that culture you think everyone does what you do.

When I was in, I wore them every day.

When I got out I took them off, and have not put them on since. I kind of feel like people who wear them after they get out are doing it for attention.

I still have them but don't put them on.

I see a lot of Soldiers that have them hooked to their belt loops and tucked in their pockets...

I've had them on my keychain for 20 years

They were kept in the Mobility folder when I was in. I was even asked by someone where my dog tags were since I was not wearing them. I told her we were not allowed to wear them in the AF. She was once married to a Navy guy and he wore his all the time.

Another reason why was for us aircraft maintainers not to get strangled since we could not wear jewelry when working on aircraft.

The only time we did wear them was when we were deployed or during phase II exercises.

Not since I retired. But everyday on active duty.

Granted we are supposed to wear them, but I like to wear them mainly because I am AB+

Still have my original RA 24 305 860 tags. Do not wear them anymore since I retired. Never got new ones with my other serial numbers. Now the Army has given me a new serial number when I lost my ID card and got another one, but I've never memorized it. Maybe I ought to get a new set of tags with the new number. However, everyone wants my SSAN and I get a blank stare when I say that I have a new SN to replace my SSAN lol

I still do. Not every day of the month, but most. And definitely for every drill weekend and unit function.
