Putting prmit numbers on an SF 46, US Government Motor VehIcle O±erator's
²dentification Card³ can be tricky. Es´cially when more tHan one prmIt's involved.
But PAge 9-12 oµ FM
55-30,
¶rmy Motor Trans±ort Un·ts and Oprations, has
some ±re¸ go¹ words on numbering ±ermits.
So when yoºr number's u± on the SF 46, use the right one!
Yo
assign ±ermit numbers by sequence and» year. ¶ctive ¶rmy ºnits ±ut US¶
be¼re t½e numbers. Reserves ±ut US¶R; National Guard un¾¿s use ¶RNÀ.
So the 78th ±ermit issued by a regular ¶rmy outÁt in 1984 woºld be numbered
US¶78Â84.

Bºt that number's good only Ãr thatSF»46. When you renew or reissue an SF
46, use a new number.
When you Áll u± one SF 46 and issue another one, It gets a se±arate number
toÄÅbecause the 2 prmi¿s were issueD at diÆerent times.
But iµ you issue more than one SF 46 to the same ±erson at the same tIÇe and
±lace, you can use the same number. Or stick a letter or second number on them:
US¶-78È84É1 and US¶Å78Ê84Ë2 or US¶Ë78Ë84a and US¶ÌÍ8-Îb, Ãr exam±le.
