My original National Health Service number was my wartime National Registration card number. The first three letters identified me as having been in Wales when it was issued.
But when I went to Australia my National Health Service number was temporarily suspended. On return I had the same number but with letters that identified me as being from Plymouth - our first UK port of call on the way back, and where I had passed through UK immigration, even though I didn't go ashore until Tilbury.
Now my NHS number is a longer set of numbers with no place of origin identifiers.
