Can a Dog Tag Make a Great Gift Idea for Dad?
When you
hear the expression "dog tags" you think "Fido," right? While that's a logical assumption, you'd be wrong.
So just what are
dog tags then? Dog tags are identification tags worn by military personnel around their neck at
all times. They are used to identify fallen and injured soldiers. The
US Army first required the tags in 1906, and the requirement is still
in place today.
You can now
customize dog tags
with your favorite expression, sports team and jersey number. Parents can
purchase custom tags with their son or daughter's name and number to
show off their pride and support. The
custom dog tags can be purchased
as a traditional necklace style or keychain style, which easily attaches to your keys.
These dog tags have become a quite a fashion hit in recent years. What is cool
about these non-military ID tags is that they can be customized with almost anything you would like. The tags are now available in
the traditional metal military-looking styles but also come in plastic and
acrylic materials. There are literally hundreds of graphics, styles and
expressions to choose from.
As you can see, dog tags are no longer just for military personnel and
make for a great gift for dad!
