The second number in the 1,2 and 3 examples was the Corp Area he lived in...19XXXXXX was an enlistee from 9th Corp area. I use 9th Corp as an example since I was in the 9th Corp Area here in WA. State

That's neat to know .. yea, his was a 13XXXXXXX out of New York

I was talking with my one brother last night and he mention that the 69th was still active because he heard that they are heading to Iraq soon. We both were under the impression they were deactivated when the war was over. I told him I'd check it out and send him a link.

Oh and another thing I found out ... he didn't tell his mother that he was sent to Germany. In one of the letters to his Aunt, he asked her not to say anything

Have no idea how things are now. So many have went into the services since then there is probably a whole other system in use now...

In the 50s and 60s volunteers had a serial number starting with "RA" for Regular Army. I can't remember what drraftees, guard and reservists used.

In the 70s they switched to using your Social Security Number for your serial number. For a couple of years while te transition was made most had two serial numbers.

Swerve, we had FR followed by a seven digit number for regulars and FV with a seven digit number for reservists. As you point out, the Social Security Number (which was not to be used for identification) was then adopted for use as identification, an event that to this day causes problems for retirees.

The DD Form 214 which we were all advised to register at the local courthouse upon retirement is, as a public record, now being retrieved by identity thieves who use its information which conveniently includes the retiree's SSN.

I agree Nully. RWR's legacy will not be matched in our lifetime. At least he got to witness the fall of the USSR and the Berlin Wall.. He deserves more than an airport and a gov building named for him...

The London Telegraph editorial is right, he belongs on Mt Rushmore.

A president worthy of Mount Rushmore

Peggy Noonan on the Drudge radio program... I was hoping to hear from her today. I haven't turned on the TV for a few days, but I listen to the radio.
