An Army Serial Number is a Military Identification Number. When I was in the Army in 1963/1966, one would have a lifetime social security number for income tax purposes and a military ID number. Back then they were not the same number, but in 1969 it might have changed.
That was the Social Security Number for GI's.

The Vietnam war was America's last war in which US Servicemen had serial numbers. Many Viet Vets had two numbers typed onto their discharge papers, their serial number and their social security number. A typical dog tag in Vietnam had: 1. Name 2. Religious preference 3. Blood type 4. RA 5555555555 serial number (Regular Army volunteer) 5. US 5555555555 serial number or SSN (Draftee-US stood for United States Selective Service)
defeating an army that was much greater in numbers.
They were Auschwitz concentration camp numbers and did not have any 'meaning'.
