NAVY ADMIN GUIDE

Navy Serial Number & Sender Identification Block

The sender-identification block helps identify, classify, and track correspondence. The exact serial/originator practice can vary by organization, so the value of a tool is precise placement—not inventing the number.

What to verify

Do not generate fake tracking numbers

MilAdmin can place the information you enter, but local serials, correspondence numbers, and originator codes must come from the command’s actual process.

Common formatting problem

When the block is positioned with spaces, it shifts as fonts or page settings change. Use real alignment settings instead.
