Ser. no was Soc sec no. by then. Flight 1460 at Lackland from 14 Sep 71 to 25 Oct 71. AFSC 74150 When I got my assignment to McChord AFB after basic my DI asked me who I had pissed off to get that assignment. He must have known something I didn't and was exactly right.
I went through the Lakes in '65 and still remember my service number.

My Nr. was 671-49-86. Because of an aircraft engine school that I had been to I was sent directly to a NAS and worked either two or three days before I got my Navy issue stuff. All the Navy guys were really puzzled to see civilian clothes on the flight line. I really didn't mind missing boot camp.
I am pretty good with numbers.
My old HS locker lock was 1,15,32.
However, as hard as I try, I can't remember the ser # of my Service rifle. It served me well and I missed having to give it back.
At my age now, just remembering my wife's I phone number, is the most important, one to remember.

STCM and Walkin' Jack sound like oldtimers, MCPO sounds a little younger. 682 02 45 here, even have it stamped on a Randall Model 15 that I bought back when it was about $35. In the late sixties, we used to pretend that B in front of a serial number stood for boot.
You are underrating the hardships that the AF sometimes had to undergo. When I was on the Ike, the NIS agent used to dine with the LDOs and Warrants. He freely admitted that he had been in the Air Force before he was a Norfolk cop, but he let us know right off that he hadn't had an easy time of it. The whole time he was in boot camp, he had to room with a guy that he really didn't get along with , and there was nothing that he could do about it.
