Note: The purpose of this calendar is to match DOD stamped plates with dates in a calendar year. But, the DOD date, is really the Acceptance date, thus, the day the government ordnance employee approved the vehicle after testing the vehicle off the production line. Therefore, the Date of Delivery, is not the production date, but the acceptance date.
