I use this search all the time trying to locate people. One thing you can try is to go to a local recruiter with the tag and see if they will track the person down and have him give you a call. They are NOT allowed to give information but they are allowed to contact a member of the armed forces and have that member give you a call. Worth a shot.

Only thing that throws me is the "UNK". They blood type you on in processing or at least they did back in the day. Still worth trying to find the person though. It would be pretty cool to give it back.

Im a retired Senior Personnel Sergeant and there is no instance where blood type wouldnt be on a dog tag. I have seen No preference in religian. You may be able to contact the nearest military installation Inspector General Office. When i was doing investigations for them we had a lot of access for that type of information espcially since you may have his SSN..... better known as his service number.

I'm in the Army now, and I checked in the email system called AKO. I found one listing for a Mark Tieman who is listed as a civilian at United states Army Pacific. I send him an email with the link to this page, So if he is the guy, hopefully he will contact you, or email me back.

When I was in the Army back in 1974 my blood type was on it and my religion but that was back in the day

The A number is his service number. He enlisted prior to the Military switching to Social Security Numbers for identification. I do not remember what year the Military switched from "Service Numbers" to Social Security Numbers. I think it was in the early to mid 60's as it was after I had been in the Navy for a few years. I know that I saw service numbers that were started with B as all the A numbers had been used. my Service number was 535-81-XX.

In regards to blood type. My dog tags had my blood type on them. In fact they put the wrong blood type on the ones that I was originally issued and I had to get a new set after having my blood type verified. Of course I am speaking of an Eon or Two ago. 1959-1978 USN.

mil. dog tags will AWAYS have your blood type on then so if you get wounded thay dont have to type your blood before starting to operate saving a step and maybe your life
