The very first Shields of Strength necklace was a simple dog tag purchased at an Army Navy store then engraved with Scripture by a local Beaumont, Texas jeweler to wear as a reminder of God’s Truth. With the inspiration of that first dog tag, Shields of Strength grew into a thriving Christian business producing millions of Scripture-engraved dog tag necklaces now worn proudly by Christians worldwide, including athletes, members of the armed forces, first responders and family members of those who serve our communities and country.
