Generally, ATC advises you of a "pilot deviation", as they call it. Some will give you a landline number to call (which I wouldn't), but generally, they report it through the appropriate service liaison to the FAA....generally an O-4/5 who is the service rep to the FAA. This is why on your DD-175/1801, you do not put a name or service number on it, just put "on file" in those blocks.
One reason you don't want you name given to them or want to call them, is especially important to those with FAA certs. Even though when piloting a military aircraft, you're NOT operating under the priviliges of your FAA certificates; the FAA can and has violated military pilots under their FAA certs for a violation that has occurred when flying a military plane........ie- when not operating under the privilege of the civil certs. That's why you don't give a name.
