dogtag

A thin, metallic, oval-like-shaped plate used as a form of identification on various aspects (like name, DOB, blood type, etc), worn with a chain (like a necklace), usually by infantry.
The true purpose of the dogtag is to be able to easily identify the corpse of a soldier. The dogtags are usually rested into the mouth of a soldier, sometimes even shoved up their teeth.
"Up their teeth? Ouch....I know they're dead, but still."

dogtag on dogtag

Slang for sexual relations between soldiers. This can also mean any kind of romantic relationship, as well, provided that both partners are in the military (and of opposite sexes, in accordance with the laws of the UCMJ).
"D's dating another medic... man, that guy is really into dogtag on dogtag action."
