They have an inspection date (January 2018 or newer) and a pack date. The Inspection date is three years after the pack date, and the inspection date is the date the Military inspects the cases during long term storage to verify they are still fit for consumption.

Always inspect the red Time Temperature Indicator (TTI) found on top of the case.
