rules for regligious pendants on dog tags

[Sara]

Are US Army soldiers allowed to wear a religious pendant or cross with their dog tags, and if not, are they allowed on a separate chain?


Thanks

they can wear them separate however they can not be showing while the uniform is on. everything must be tucked in.

well that sounds reasonable...

doubt you would want the shiny things hanging out anyway...

Thank you.... I appreciate the answers.

Questions may be coming your way, new to this and need advice.

Avoid shiny if possible..
Nothing good comes out of shiny things when you are in.

Also beware that they don’t emit any sound when worn.

Hello Team Infidel,

right - and I guess that applies to any Army - unless you wear a beadstring on your wrist

Interesting question if you consider how many religious symbols are used as/in official military symbols.
