Hi guys,

another addition to the forum collection: 1987

...So I have a question,
when did the shape/design of the MRE cases change from 'flat' to
square with the oversliding "oversleeve" to
the square case that is issued nowadays?

Are there perhaps years that both shapes were issued?

Yes, see here:

Thank you for mentioning it.

I did come across it when I was searching for the topic.
That's really nice, same year with different cases.
