So print out another tag and put it with the other two.
Is anyone stopping that? It’s not like it’s hard to do.
Good idea, just don’t wear it for inspections..................
Indeed. . .the serviceman buys another set of commercially available dog-tags and then engraves like official tags but then on the backside, engraves a bible verse.
That may be easy, yes.
But an even easier thing to do is respect freedom of religion. It’s really not asking much.
“So print out another tag and put it with the other two.

...you’re missing the point, The Army, which is an institution of the government, which has no business or authority to curtail the exercise of personal religious expression in this manner. Are you Ok with the Army doing that? It’s not like any given service member is plastering the side of a tank or warship with a banner ad or something, it’s a dog tag for God’s sake.
It looks like this is in reference to commercially made and sold “dog tags” NOT the ones that are issued by each service branch during initial in processing or by their personnel section if lost.
Each service has what is imprinted on their tag. For the Army it is Name, DOD ID Number (replaced SSNs in 2015) Blood Type, and Religion.
If I were holding a “dog tag” inspection, I would expect to see my soldiers having their Army issued ID tags. If they wanted a commercially made one like those in this article, I’d say, fine, but by regulation you must have an Army issued tag, go to the personnel section and get a pair.
You shouldnt have to.Tell the commie,and thats what he is,to pound sand.
