EAST GERMAN UNIFORM DATE CODES

Date Letter Codes

All East German Uniform items were letter coded to indicate the year of manufacture from 1968 onward.  Prior to this the actual year and possibly also the quarter was usually stamped into the uniform item.

K=1968, Z=1969, M=1970, X=1971, B=1972 ,L=1973, O=1974, S=1975, R=1976, A=1977, U=1978, F=1979, E=1980, G=1981, I=1982, C=1983, H=1984, T=1985, P=1986, L =1987, Y=1988, N=1989, D=1990

(You will notice that the letter L is used twice.)
