Hello: This World War I draft registration for a library patron's ancestor gives prior military service. I'm trying to figure out which records to request, but am unsure of the final acronym. I can read 1st Class, fireman, 5 years, 7 months, and U.S. [but don't know what the final letter is]. One of my co-workers believes that a first class fireman would be Navy.

I read it as Rank: 1st Class; Branch: Fireman 5 years, seven months; USN (US Navy).
