Hi all,
I found this dog tag set ( with chains and religious medallion ) in a drawer that I had forgotten about.
It is a late war tag ( well, post 1942 ) without next of kin info and his tetanus shot was in '43.
Durst, Frank A. 0-2074361 T43 44 A ( P = Protestant )
I would like to find out more of the individual's service record if I can. The only Frank A. Durst I can find was from Ohio County, West Virginia and enlisted on October 1st, 1942. He is shown as being in the Philippine Scouts ( which piques my interest further ) but his tag starts with a zero - which I have believed was for officers. I have read there WERE American officers leading the scouts .....
Any ideas experts???
Thanks in anticipation, Dan
