This compact all-metal rosary is rugged, functional, and portable. It has a meaningful history, as it is a replica of the service combat rosaries issued by the government to soldiers, sailors, and flying aces during WWI. Now with a new beautiful upgraded quality Pardon Crucifix, the WWI Battle Beads rosaries are the closest replica available to the vintage antique service combat rosaries from 1916!
These rosaries are quite strong, do not tangle, are small and portable, and very easy to carry in your pocket. The nickel-free Silver finished brass chains are no-rust, no-tangle, and have a great weight and feel.
The Our Father beads are slightly larger to aid in meditative prayer. You can feel where you are as you move through prayers and at 21" long, they are wearable but still bunch up small enough to carry in your pocket.
Although the WWI Battle Beads Rosary is rugged enough to carry in your pocket, we do include a small round box for presentation and storage.
As with all Rugged Rosaries, you may add optional medals. We recommend only adding up to 4. Some of our photos show an optional medal attached.

The Pardon Crucifix grants indulgences. For more information about the Pardon Crucifix, you can download a printable .pdf file about it by clicking HERE.
Thank you for shopping and God Bless.
** Please note that the centerpiece medal is sometimes depicted in English, and sometimes in Latin, however, we only use the finest quality available from Italy. The different versions are due to availability and supply issues.

Purchased three of these. Absolutely beautiful! Gave them to my husband and his two Exodus 90 brothers. They loved them!
When I opened my package, I was very pleased but not surprised. As always, the Rosary quality was just as expected and beautiful. I recommend Rugged Rosaries to all my friends and family 😊
I receive the beautiful WWII beads in a beautiful round box with the blessed mother on the inside. RR also sent me a little decade ring as a gift. I love my new rosaries. My sister saw them and also ordered them. Thank you Rugged Rosaries! I’m always satisfied with my purchase.
I love my items especially the extra gifts God Bless
I love my rosary pocket beads, I always carry with me for protection.
Much easier to carry in the pocket than a standard rosary, and very nicely made. I love it
