SSN's were NOT used as a Service Number until about 1970. I joined the Marine Corps in 1967 and my Military Service Number was entirely different from my SSN. I was stationed at an Army Fort (Fort Lee, VA) for Quartermaster School in early 1968 and the Regular Army (not National Guard) Service Numbers began with the letters "RA", for Regular Army. I don't remember if the National Guard members started with NG or not. Too many years ago. I too find it hard to believe that someone in the US Military would not know their Service Number. I still remember mine today and I was disharged in 1971.

Like the guy above said the service number nowadays is your Social Security number. I dont know if many would want to share that via the internet lol. I dont even know if you should even be sharing the old service numbers like that either. Just to be on the safe side by protecting your privacy and identity

I was in the Coast Guard 1368141. As of 2004 coasties changed over from using SSN's to emplid's so that on all official but not clasified documents there is a way to identify people without ever giving out SSN's. Probably because of how many parts of the coast guard have been contracted out to civilans.

Dad still has his service number memorized even though it's been over 30 years since he had to use it! He was AF Teletype from 1950-1974.

For those of you too young to know any better... this was back in the days before everyone had a SS# and before they were used for EVERYTHING! He's not asking for anything that can give away your identification!

what are you some kind of ID thief? Sadly I am sure some will give you there # so that you can ruin there life. Try getting a honest way to make a living and not by stealing someones identity.
