Since there are several US flyers with naval aviation backgrounds on
this group, I thought I would post this just in case anyone here was
affected but didn't get the word yet:

"Personal records for every Navy and Marine Corps aviator or aircrew
member who has logged flight hours in the past 20 years have been posted
on a public Navy Web site..."
Your individual action is simple. You call the 1-800 number of any one
of the credit bureaus and use the automated menus to put a "credit
alert" on your file (using a touchtone phone helps). It literally takes
a couple minutes.
I bet the so-called whiz kids didn't have this in mind when they
abolished service numbers for SSNs forty years ago!
Going slightly off topic/related FYI, you can opt to not have your SSN
on your FAA pilot's license. This takes a couple minutes on the FAA
website.
