Good morning all,

I found a shirt that has a non readable contract # but has a sailors name and service number stenciled on it. I'm trying to get an idea of approximately when this garment may have been made. Name: Barbara P. Service #: 436 79 94

 

Thank you

Am I wrong when I think the first 3 digits were a sort of geographical location denominator?

 

FWIW, my gramp's tags were 297-71-11, he was from TN...issued to him in 1952.
