Reproduction m1940 Dog Tag Chain
Each Reproduction m1940 Dog Tag Chain is hand-made to exacting wartime standards. Prior to 1940, a mono-filament chord was issued to hold the tags, from 1940 to 1943 this was the chain issued to the troops. The beaded chain was available at the PX for purchase and was very popular. After 1944, the beaded chain was issued.
It features a stainless steel curb link chain with the proper sister hooks to secure the tags in place. Perfect for the World War II reenactor or veteran. Compare to our original m1940 Dog Tag Chain

Zachary Gruba –
Outstanding product the m1940 chain feels better overall then wearing the regular bead chain.
Kent –
Extremely happy with this chain. I ordered it and the beaded chain. Tags hang better on this chain. They lay flat and the chain adds a really good look to my impression.

Bernadette –
I had lots of questions and an incomplete service record to go by and Lance was extremely helpful. Received the tags and can’t wait to give them as Christmas gifts. It was a pleasure doing business with this company.
Andrew Devine –
I lost my grandfather’s real WWII dog tag because I had it on a ball chain that broke. My cousin who got the other tag, got the original chain, needless to say he did not lose his. I’ve got replacements now, and with this chain, I’m not worried about loosing them this time. Well built. Great construction Shipped quick.
Ted Severe –
This chain is almost like the original silver version. However, the “nubbins” on the hooks stick out farther than on the original silver version. Dog tag cannot hang straight because of these larger “nubbins.” Other than that, it is a good reproduction.
Anne –
Exactly what I wanted. Looks just like my moms
Doug –
Excellent quality and attention to details. Love them!
John T. –
These dog tag chains look just like the original WWII chains. Awesome!
Bob –
Wear it every day.
Dave –
Great product though I shortened both chains. Now I can wear my dog tag and as a tribute to my father, my dad’s dog tag fm WWII.
Dave Lamb –
Great quality and a sharp looking product. Only problem is that my P1940 Navy tags don’t fit. Not your fault. Had a set of original AAF tags from my Grandad that fit. Went on like they were born to do it. Going to order ball and chain from you for the P1940 set. Guess the Navy didn’t get the good chains for theirs. The ball and chain will be better than the white HBT issued. Pretty sure my grandfather would have upgraded from the white string in the day.
Pete –
As ordered
Kyle –
Wonderful way to wear those tags! I think it is much better than the ball chain issued.
Riley –
A very quality chain,very comfortable and sturdy, thanks WW2 Dog Tags !!
Christopher –
Great reproduction of the early chain.
Although I’m a living hisotrian, I bought these for my mother who never saw her dad’s WWII dog tags. They fit the bill and moved emotions. Thanks WWII Dog Tags!
Jim –
Just like my dads! Thanks WWII dog Tags
Sergio –
I was looking for many years for this chain and finally I got it! A perfect reproduction! Maybe a little too long for me but ok. I’m very happy! Thanks WWII Dog Tags
Polk, J A – USMC –
Outstanding Repro ! The chain is heavier than the original I have, otherwise an exact copy !
Well Pleased
Alex –
Great reproduction!
John Altmeyer –
Just like the original set that I have. Thanks for setting up a set of dog tags like the originals my Uncle Mike wore on D Day. I buried a set on the beach at Normandy…he always thought of the boys that didn’t come home. He always wanted to go back, but could never afford the trip. I feel I left a tribute to him buried on Omaha Beach. He was in the second wave of troops that landed, he was an MP attached to the 5th Engineers Special Brigade. Thanks!
Sebastian Herics –
Finally a great reproduction for a rare chain.
Chad –
Good sturdy product. Nicely made and authentic looking. I plan to use it to wear my dad’s tags to the next event.
Shirley W. Lemerise –

Well done. Dog tags for my dad are now wearable and can be hung up for display instead of in a drawer. Thank you. He would be proud to know I kept them and be glad I honor his service and survival.
Richard E Swapp Jr –
Fast service and the chain looks great on my dad’s dog tags. Thanks!
J.D. Spielman –
I use this chain to wear my Dad’s , WWII, USNR, 1943 dog tag. To think that he wore a chain & dog tag like this in that war & I can honor that by wearing it everyday is a special feeling. I trust this chain. Thanks You!
Bill –
Great item! Superb quality.
Giovanni –
Excellent product, high quality, look just like the original of ww2, PERFECT.
Roland Martini Harris –
Perfect, this is my third time ordering this product as I have used it to complete replicas of both my grandfathers’s tags and I purchased one for myself as I prefer it to today’s ball chain that comes with modern dog tags.
David D. –
This chain is a faithful reproduction of the original one affixed to my moms tags from 78 years ago. The links are a bit larger, the clasps are really a spot on reproduction of the original. I am delighted with my purchase. I wear my moms tags along with my dad’s wedding ring attached to them in gratitude to my parents service in WWII along with my 3 Uncles and Grandfather who all fought as well. I would like to extend my gratitude to all who have served and given so much to our country and our freedom.
Dale H. Leach –
I am completely satisfied with my new WWII Dog Tag chain that will be used to display my father’s WWII Dog Tag that was found by 30 years ago by metal detector and returned recently to me, his Son, by its kind original kind finder. The high quality of and attention to detail of this beautiful replica chain is immediately apparent at first glance. Thank you!
Joe –
Best product on the market, truly exceeded my expectations. Will recommend and continue to buy from wwiidogtags in the future.
Arizona –
I’ve seen the originals and this chain looks just like them. The fact that they’re hand made is even more impressive.
Samantha –
I think these guys are amazing! Have a pair of tags that are very special to me that were my grandfathers back then. I have worn them so much that I had to tact weld them closed many years ago. It got to the point where they just wouldn’t hold it anymore. When I found these guys and what they do I was so happy that I did. Even though they are not real they look exactly the same as what was on them. I definitely recommend them!
Zachary Schmidt –
I received a reproduction M1940 chain. It is great. It is the right length and very well made. I imagine that it will last me an incredibly long time. I also like that it doesn’t seem to snag my hair. I highly recommend this chain.
DW –
Very happy with my purchase. Well made chain and looks just like vintage ones I’ve seen in WWII museums. Glad I found this site. Btw, very fast shipping too!
DH –
The order arrived promptly and the chains look fantastic! So glad I found your site and I look forward to doing more business with you in the future.
SilverFox –
I love this chain it’s better than what we’re using now in service and personal I think the military should go back to using chains like these for their tags, the chains currently are cheap and break easily
