I'm seeing C/SC....Prehaps Catholic and then his Regiment abbreviated?
Secular Clergy??
Interesting, my Grandad's dog tags have C O E (Church of England), serial no. & surname & initials in the same spot, 'Clergy/ Scottish Church', maybe ?
Congregatio Sanctae Crucis? (Fathers and Brothers of the Holy Cross). I have no idea really, but that's my offering! Leon.
Sounds good Tony,lets see if anyone can back it up.
I have at least one tag with P or Pres. which is WWI. If I can find it I'll add a pic. I personally think a lot would have depended on the bloke stamping them, the soldier himself or some kind of official department.
Whenever I've shown anyone my father-in-law's tag it's immediately brushed off as a fake because it doesn't conform to what's known or shown in books, but it was his official issue tag, he wore it and the details on it match those in his pay book.
Tony
