Hello,
Years ago I posted a request on this site asking for stories about Dog Tags. Thanks to the many responses, the book is completed with many stories from WWII. Here’s a description:
The identification tag, affectionately known as the Dog Tag, might seem like a meaningless piece of metal if it were not for the importance placed on it by many servicemen and women, and their families. It has become a piece of their loved one that they can hold in their hand.
Having spent years on the research of Identification Tags, or Dog Tags as it is commonly known in America, the book, Dog Tags: The History, Personal Stories, Cultural Impact, and Future of Military Identification, discusses each of these topics. And, has not been addressed as thoroughly before now.
I hope you will consider sharing its release - it is a topic both current and poignant. This could not have been done without the interest of those active duty, veterans, and family members who shared their stories with me.
A YouTube video about the book is at the following address: http://youtu.be/ZdcvbzPgm9s
Thank you and remember those who have served!
Sincerely,
Ginger Cucolo
