TL;DR - My roster number in Basic Training was A-1 022.
My first Xbox gamertag was "aMonkeyOnHeroin" then Xbox made me change it so I went with "aMonkeyOnKush" (my friends & I all were "a(animal)On(drug)" for like ... no reason). After about the fourth name change (where I started putting zero's for the letter "o"), I waved the white flag. This happened around the same time Zero Dark Thirty came out & I was watching another military movie (I had been in the Army for a year at this point) where they spelled out the numbers.
I wasn't sure what numbers to use as my favorite numbers were all two digit so combining to make one big four digit number was too much. Then, while putting things away in my room, I noticed that my roster number on my duffle bag that I was issued in Basic Training was A-1 022 (A for being in Alpha Company during in-processing). I dropped the A (obviously), spelled out 022, & went with it as a temporary tag as it wasn't crazy long or difficult. I wasn't completely onboard with it as it was a temporary name until I found something better I liked.
Then I had family I gamed with start referencing me as "ohtwotwo", friends calling me "ohtwo", & it just continued to grow on me & now it's a name I use for everything. If I have a username for something, there's a 99.9% change it's "ohtwotwo".
