Why would Russian military personnel have Social Security Numbers?
It doesn’t literally say SSNs, but “идентификационные коды” which translates as (and sounds like) “identification codes”.
I'd love to get to a system where your tax id was assumed to public knowledge
Why would Russian military personnel have Social Security Numbers?
Table headers are quite suspect, there is a column named "state, federal territory, etc". In Russian "state" refers exclusively to US states or Micronesia states, and "federal territory" refers exclusively to German feredal states.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Why wouldn't they?
It just seems odd that there would be identification numbers for a U.S. agency included in a data dump of a foreign military.
Not sure whats going on here but interested. Anyone have a TLDR for the non-Cyrillic readers?

It's sort of how USians say "zip codes" for foreign addresses when they mean "postcodes" (the Zone Improvement Plan, from which ZIP is taken, is a US thing).
