US Army Crucifix Pendant
This US Army crucifix is a small silver-tone Latin cross with a detailed figure of Christ and a jump ring at the top, so it is ready to hang. It sits well on a dog tag chain, a cord around the neck, a rosary or a keyring, and it is small enough to carry every day. Service members, veterans, military families and collectors of US Army items will all find a use for it.
Features
- Silver-Tone Finish — The bright silver-tone surface catches the light on the flat arms of the cross and shows off the relief work on the figure.
- Detailed Corpus — The corpus, the sculpted figure of Christ on the cross, has defined ribs, a draped loincloth and arms raised along the crossbar.
- INRI Title Plaque — The upper arm carries the INRI inscription, the Latin abbreviation for "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews."
- Raised Footrest — A small block beneath the feet, called a suppedaneum, adds depth to the lower half of the cross.
- Antiqued Recesses — Darker shading in the folds and hollows of the figure makes the detail stand out against the polished surround.
- Jump Ring Bail — The split metal ring at the top lets you thread the crucifix onto a ball chain, cord or rosary without any extra hardware.
- Classic Latin Cross Profile — The cross has straight, squared-off arms and a longer lower beam, the traditional shape used on crucifixes.
Faith and Provenance
Small devotional crosses have gone to war in the pockets and on the dog tag chains of American soldiers for generations, and this one carries the US Army name. It is genuine government-line gear, not a reproduction, which matters to collectors building a display of Army items. It works as a personal keepsake, a gift for someone deploying or a memorial piece for a veteran.

A heartfelt tribute to faith and serviceI bought this US Army Crucifix Cross as a gift for my grandfather who served in the military. He absolutely loves it! The craftsmanship is top-notch and it looks even better in person than in the pictures. It's the perfect size for wearing on a chain or hanging on a wall.

CrucifixHad an 18 karat gold cross when I was a teenager but I sold it recently,I was thinking of buying a replacement for it but with the price of gold these days I thought this was a better option.
Presentation is the key

Blessed My Grandson With ThisMy grandson is deploying soon and I wanted to give him something special. This cross is just beautiful, the way the light catches the metal is really nice. I had our priest bless it before I gave it to him and he cried, said it was the best gift ever.
Very meaningful for soldiers

Great quality for under two dollarsYou really cant beat the price for something this meaningful. It is a solid little cross that feels sturdy enough to wear every day if you wanted to. I am really happy with how it looks on my gear.
