WW2 Canadian RCAF Dog Tags X 2 Named L.L. Smith

This lot consists of two original World War II-era Canadian Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) dog tags, both named to L.L. Smith. The tags are made from pressed fibre, a material commonly used in Canadian military identification tags during the period. Each tag bears essential identification details, including the service member’s name, rank or service number, and “RCAF” designation. These tags are linked by the typical length of string or cord, as was standard issue for personnel serving during the conflict. Dog tags such as these were worn by members of the Canadian armed forces for identification and efficient record-keeping in case of injury or death. RCAF dog tags from the Second World War reflect the Canadian contribution to the air war and the wider Allied effort. Items like these are significant for their association with individual service members and their role in the structure of wartime military administration.
