Hi everyone

Can anyone give me some info on the below picture

I’ve never seen MREs with these stickers over the usual printed dates and codes

Thanks

Does the prod. date says "8095"?
So inspection date suppose to be March 2021. For some reason, these ones got a prolonged inspec. date? Maybe they already got inspected and were found "OK until 2023"?

No I think I worked out - a seller in Poland was selling these as β€˜2023’ inspection MREs

They all have a sticker with a 11/2023 inspection (they will be made next month in November 2020 I presume? πŸ˜‚)

It’s some guy bundling together old rations and selling them as new ones

I got a few cases of this

FRH is inside, however MREs are mixed production - 2017-2020. I checked a few

This is the guy trying to copy official stickers/stamps to pass them off
