New Guy needing help identifying something

[retire05]

I just started detecting a couple of months ago and yesterday I found something interesting that I can't identify. The dates engraved make me think it may be old (3/8/01 and 3/5/19), but I'm not even sure what it is. Does anyone have an idea of what it may be? The name engraved is Roy Frayer. Thanks
Brad

I forgot to post that the item is oval at about 1.5 inches high and 2 inches long. It is extremely thin metal; kind of like the thickness of a military dog tag

I wonder if this was him: Roy Frayer (1901 - 1929) - Manhattan County, NY

It might be some kind of memorial tag. Perhaps the deceased died just short of his 18th birthday. So sad.

I think so too, sad that he died so young.

Perhaps he died from injuries received in WW 1 that ended only five month before his DOD.
