Please will someone tell me the meaning of ASN in the attached image? Because the abbreviation comes before his personal number, I imagine it stands for something like [b]A[/b]merican [b]S[/b]ervice[b] N[/b]umber". Many thanks

Hi David,

Army Serial Number = ASN I think this is a common abbreviation.

Thanks so much Peter and Chris.
Why does the MOD and a long American list not mention that?!
