This doesn't appear to be a service number. Service numbers do not start with a letter.
This Wikipedia page includes information from the National Personnel Records Center regarding Navy service numbers. Service number (United States Navy) - Wikipedia

We checked with one of our archivists who specializes in Navy records and he said he does not know of any way you can trace a serial number to an individual's name, but you may want to check with the National Archives at St. Louis to see if they can search the Official Military Personnel Files (OMPFs) with only that information. The website is: Official Military Personnel Files (OMPF), Archival Records Requests | National Archives. Sorry we could not be of more assistance!

Re: Navy service numbers
1 person found this helpfulDuring the Vietnam War, the Navy used the "B" series for new enlisted followed by SIX numbers (10,001 to 99,999). This was used from 1965 to 1971. In 1972 they went to social security numbers. you can try a FOI request to National personnel Records Center, 9700 Page Blvd. St. Louis, Missouri 63132-5100. or fax the request to 314-801-9195. They may be able to back into an ID

Re: Navy service numbers
Sorry about that, I took it off my freedom of information request form that I use for American Legion grave registration ID requests. I usually use the fax #. The 1 Archives address is on the SF180 form.
