SR-71 Titanium Dog Tags

SR-71 Dog Tag #02. This Dog Tag is crafted from a rare, highly desirable, thick piece of exterior titanium from SR-71A "Super Skater" (61-7970)! This unique piece is thicker than most SR-71 exterior pieces and has been crafted into a one-of-a-kind Dog Tag! It was polished and engraved on one side with a detailed image of the SR-71 Blackbird. We used an original countersunk screw hole for the hole at the top of the dog tag. The dog tag was then anodized to a beautiful, surreal cobalt blue color. This aircraft was lost on 17 June 1970 following a post-re-fueling collision with the KC-135Q (59-1474) tanker. Lt. Col. Buddy L. Brown and his RSO Maj. Mortimer J. Jarvis both ejected and survived the crash. The KC-135 made it back to Beale AFB, California with a damaged refueling boom and aft fuselage. The SR-71 (61-7970) "Super Skater" crashed in the western Texas desert on non-Federally owned land.
