<p>[QUOTE=&quot;springfld.arsenal, post: 289716, member: 54&quot;]I think I see -85 at end of contract number, so made in 1985.&nbsp; Above that you see “Defense Personnel Support Center” which existed in Phila. Under that particular name only from 1965 until 1993.&nbsp; They were the successor to the Quartermaster Depot.&nbsp; With most any post-wwii US military gear, finding the year within the contract number is almost always the quickest way to date something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
