Historically, dog tags were simple metal plates attached to necklaces. However, it is likely that with new technologies, the current design of dog tags has changed.

Historically, dog tags were simple metal plates attached to necklaces. However, it is likely that with new technologies, the current design of dog tags has changed. The purpose of the dog tag is to provide information when it is most critical. This includes the soldier's name, Rank, service number, and blood type, should they be injured and need medical treatment. All [[UNSC]] personnel wear dog tags when on active duty. There are, however, some exceptions. [[Spartans]] have never been described as wearing dog tags, as it is possible that they interfere with [[MJOLNIR]] and [[SPI]] armor. Also, the amour itself acts as a dog tag, containing all info on the spartan wearing it.

Historically, dog tags were removed from a fallen soldier to identify and later report their death, without the need to carry the body, as this would be virtually impossible in a combat situation. For example, in his trek through the [[Library (Installation 04)|Library]], [[Master Chief]] found a dead solider called [[Marvin Mobuto]] and took his dog tag.
