Andrew - My husband was in the regular Army from 1930 -1932. His SN was a 7 digit #. I have his dog tag which is round about 1 1/4 inch in diameter. It has two round holes, one right across from the other. It was made probably of aluminum and was attached to whatever with leather thongs. Heenlisted again in the Army in 1942 and had a different SN. When he became an officer he was given a still different #. Mary
