Finding Your Player/ArmA 3 ID
-
In your Enlistment form you are required to provide Task Force 13 (TF13) with your Player/ArmA 3 Identification Number (ID). This is a number unique to every legal copy of ArmA 3, which is used for Squadl XML, and other functions on TF13 servers. The Squad XML page is published to the public, allowing anyone to view the webpage, which will have your ArmA 3 Name, Player/ArmA 3 ID, and other information, such as the Unit information, email address, website, and many more. The Squad XML file also allows you to attach the URL to the webpage to your Player/ArmA 3 profile in game, allowing for any player on the servers to view your affiliation, and display the sexy unit emblem as a patch on your character, and on the side of any vechile that you are driving.

Once your Arma 3 launches to the main menu screen click on the Profile icon in the upper right hand corner. Here is a screenshot on were to click:
