As a Vietnamese who collect antique item like war memorabilia, i can safely say most of the dog tag are either fake or of no significance. People have to understand that authentic US dog tag would rarely ever be sold in the market as either they are kept by the Vietnamese museum/government-owned collection or returned to the US a long time ago. Dog tag from ARVN soldier are usually discarded by the soldier themselves when they trying to blend into the civilian population to avoid communist procuration. If they didn't turn into scrap metal then they are sold as souvenir to tourist like you. If anyone is looking to buy up the dog tag and try to return it to their family, i say don't bother as most of them are fake.
@spookyebgie735 I BELIEVE YOU. ARE CORRECT! WHEN I FIRST SAW THIS POST, I FIGURED THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL OF THE MACHINES SENT TO VIETNAM TO MAKE REPLACEMENTS FOR THOSE LOST OR NEED CHANGED!

These are not the actual dogs tags of the American soldiers that were killed, or went MIA during the Vietnam war. As you can see by the comments it is a very easy way to make money on American tourists. One thing that is well known, about the Americans, is most have a caring heart for something like this and will be preyed upon. Dont be fooled when traveling abroad.

Found a little market just outside of Saigon with a bunch of "discarded" US military equipment in 2005. The usual stuff, canteens, flashlights etc and dog tags. I almost bought a set, but the little voice in the back of my head was saying, "hold on a second." Turns out the little voice was right.

Around the time when the American War ended (culminating with the Fall of Saigon in 1975), the Dân Sinh Market transformed from a gambling area to an industrial market - a place to find tools, equipment and construction materials. The years after the war were difficult, and tourism was non-existent, so war memorabilia wasn’t as prevalent. With no foreign collectors to sell to, much of the surplus war goods were broken down into their component materials to be used in other ways. It wasn’t until foreign tourists returned to Vietnam in the 90s that the Dân Sinh Market morphed into what we see today. People came looking for war memorabilia, and they quickly bought up all the authentic pieces. It’s estimated that as much as 99% of the war memorabilia in the market now is fake. Vendors will even take orders to produce fake zippo lighters, helmets, dog tags and old kinds of insignias and uniforms, which are then sold to collectors around the world.
The motivation to collect “the original” and the response to give that motivation a fake is profound. I am a collector of Craftsman Made in the USA tools. Much of the worldwide economy runs upon this collecting. Whether it’s a Van Gogh painting or a U.S. Vietnam era grenade. Ultimately, it’s all ashes. We’re seeking God and settling with idols.

I went to Vietnam 5 years ago as a tourist. I had a few relatives that fought in the war (One pilot, one Marine, one army) all with their own stories. I grew up hearing about the war and it generally fascinated me. Going back to meet the Vietnamese people and talking to many, even some that fought against my family was amazing. They are a very proud and smart people. They were very good to me and the level of respect I received as well as the rapport after so many years was very powerful to me. I was proud to finally feel like we set aside differences and learned a lot from the war and each other. Vietnam is now my favorite place to visit in SEA.
i would of got one of the american soldiers helmets with the camo covers. i have one. i figured you would show one up close as that is about the coolest items i seen in the whole video
i dont believe it. it COULD be true but this is also a market for tourists. sure, the VN war took place in VN but VN is also a source of consumerist items like China. i wouldnt be surprised if they just made those military surplus items to sell to tourists

As a veteran myself if I had the money I would go to vietnam and buy every dog tag they had and take them to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall placing them with the name of each soldier on the wall where they should be.
Or, you could save the airfare, buy yourself a dogtag-making machine, and make 58,220 dogtags for each one of the names on The Wall. They'd be Made in the U.S.A, but they'd still be fake copies of the originals.

Awesome. Vietnam won. Thats why you see so many US veterans moving there to retire, because its now a great place, with good social programs, no thanks to US of course.
I don't think this dog tags were real maybe some of them my dad has his originals from 1962 in a presentation case and they look way older than that those ones will probably knew just sitting around we left those machines everywhere to print dog tags
1580 MiA 53000 dead. dog tags would be single if the company leader or commanding officer took one then. the other tag goes with the poor sole who lost his life looks like alot of US soldiers got in country and threw the dog tags away or traded them for boom boom girls and Beer .
There are a lot of decent quality reproductions that have been coming out of Vietnam for years now. Be careful about claims that something is original.
