Necklace, pendant Unused vintage Italian military, original, authentic, actual item, Italian army stainless steel dog tag, dead stock necklace Body: 45mm long x 35mm wide Chain length: approx. 66cm A dog tag is used to identify an individual soldier, and it is used to recognize them by checking the dog tag when they die in battle. It is said to have started in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870, when the Kingdom of Prussia, which was fighting against the French Empire, introduced it. While the US military dog tags come in a set of two, the Italian military dog tag is a single stainless steel plate. The original purpose was to stamp the same content on both the top and bottom of a single plate, and in the event of death on the battlefield, one half was collected for the death report, and the other half was left for identifying the body. For that reason, there is a hole in the bottom half for the chain to pass through. With a design that is different from the US military's, it is an eye-catching item as an accessory. *Please note that there may be minor scratches due to storage.
