Game Yanks mHtiIatc Tags to Prevent
 Identification
 Heroism of American soldiers k now taken as matter of fact but belated stories of their courage as re vealed in identification tags that are Cross headquarters here by the Ger man military authorities is one calcu- lated to give their fellow countrymen q brand new thrill
 These tags, taken from the bodies of American officers and soldiers killed in action, are in many instances mutt concerned. the only conclusion being that wearcrs were determined that the enemy should obtain no information of value from them.
 IL takes little imagination to visual. ize tragedy in almost every one Of the little aluminium discs. Each mutt journeyed more than three thousand miles to fight under the Stars and Stripes, whose last thought on going to battle was not for his own safety but for that of his comrades. The enemy was not to get any comfort from anything found on him in case picture some of the men out in ad- vanced machine gun posts cut off from their units. hiding in shell holes. scratching the regimental and com pany numbers from the discs when death or capture seemed certain.

Game unto death" was the comment of an officer who watched the examination of the first batch of discs. In a number of cases it was possible to trace the regimen tai and company number, as If the attempt to obliterate the information had been done hurriedly.
