I didn't interpret your post as an 'already posted here'. I'm happy to spread the word about all sites that are doing something similar. I think it's wonderful that people care enough about our Vietnam veterans to try to return dog tags to them or their families. Have a good day Rev! Nice to meet you.

[Jen]

Great! Thanks for the links.

Has anyone else heard of the warning put out some time ago NOT to buy dog tags in Vietnam? Seems they were manufacturing them for the tourists.

"Local entrepreneurs long ago jumped on the war memorabilia bandwagon. Saigon street artists started the craze by crafting toy tanks and planes from scraps of Budweiser and Coca Cola cans. Dog tags and jewelry made from bullet shells soon followed. For years, one of Vietnam's major exports must have been fake Zippo lighters, copies of those carried by American GIs, inscribed with lewd or lonely messages of desperation. Put all the tourists with "authentic" army-issue Zippo lighters in a line and it would easily surpass one comprised of the mass of people claiming genuine chunks of the Berlin Wall."
