Found this a while ago, but found it again today, (thank god it wasnt lost for long) When i show people my finds, this seems to be my most intriguing to them.. Its apparently a Woman (the name on it is Fred, Janice S. So it would be Janice S Fred?) so she would have to of been part of the WAK or something... She was a Protestant (The letter P next to the date) its dated 5 - 9 - 40 (1940)

I took it to an old Vietnam Veteran metal detector near by, he said this is an army dog tag, not fashion.. Also I have tried to find this person via records, but cant :( I think i found a relative of the lady, (her daughter maybe) but cant get the phone number...

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as i did :)

I'm sure there's some veterans who can give you the proper links to track down family or next of kin....here's hoping you can return it.

You might check with a group called Angelo's Angels. Their mission is to help with the return of WW2 dogtags to relatives by providing contact information through research. Here is
their website. Great bunch of volunteers.
