Each note is to be numberedindividually and a record kept of to whom the note was issued. The number on the noteis to be printed in indelible ink and is to be constructed by using the first 3 letters ofthe bearer’s name, the service number and a random element (e.g. SMI-8027038-TFG).There should be no signatures or features that would identify the originating unit.
