MEN In SERVICE GET
IDENTIFICATION TAGS
New System Recently Adopted
Gives Every United States
Soldier a Number

A new system was adopted by the
war department on February %,
whereby every soldier in the Ameri
can army will be numbered to in
sure prompt and accurate means of
Identification.
The system does not apply to the
officers, but applies to all enlisted
men of the regular army, national
guard and national army, including
retired men on active duty.
The number assigned to a man will
become a part of his official designa-
ton and will never be changed or re-
assigned to another soldier. 1t will
be entered on Identification tags and
will be entered plainly in a conspicu-
GUS place on all individual records Of
the soldier and will be used in con-
nection with the soldiers name in
rolls, reports and returns which his
name appears.
To each man subsequently entering
the service a number will be as-
signed by the recruiting or other
proper officers at the time of enlist
ing in or otherwise entering the serv-
ice, care being taken to prevent as
signment of two or more numbers to
the same man.
The new plan is in accordance
with the present system being used
by the English and French, which
makes Identification Of the wounded
or killed more certain, and is the
first time in the history of the United
States that her soldiers have ever
been numbered.
