These military questions and answers have peeked my interest. I have a question and please answer according to protocol, I am not sure what that is. Thank you-Candace 1. I have a bracelet of my father's and this is engraved on the backside: Bill C. Hamilton A. S. N. ________ (an 8 digit #) January 11, 1943 2. I have what I think were his "dog tags", with the same # plus a T44 A after the #. What do these mean and how do I find out more information about when he joined etc.? Thank you very much-Candace
