dogs tags have blood type on them
some people put their names on their BDUs same for boots
help to keep track what belong to who!

never heard any one putting blood type on their boots, names & rank yes! on the inside of the boot near the top.

sample: E-4 johnson
and maybe their Service number too

will it may count on the unit one is sign to in the service!
each unit commander make up their own set of standers

i guess it's because you are preparing/expecting to get shot?

you notice the next part says something like "no that's smart, all Delta do that", so i wouldn't worry about it

it's probably also related to the rivalry between delta/rangers, he was just critisising Delta for the sake of it?

Makes sense. You can never be too prepared....especially if it saves you life.
Better than relying on luck any day.

That's what they were called when I served. Cami Tops were referred to as blouses.

I have never heard of that but I have heard of people tattooing their dog tags in the inside of their arm just in case they are kia and their dog tags are lost. They put it there because I guess statistics shown that soldiers that were kia were less likely to damage the inside if their arm.

i suppose its a bit like how some people in the forces think that taking out life insurance is also bad luck..

but in reality, its just being prepared for the worst..
