The data is stamped into one of the ends of the bunk.  Sometimes if the bed has been painted multiple times it can be difficult to see the information.

I don't know about the actual dates, but those were the beds I slept on from basic to jump school (September 1966-February 1967).  When I got to Training Group, we had bigger beds and thicker mattresses.  Al most like a college dorm.

I remember the ones from Camp Mackall in the tarpaper shacks that had the springs replaced with cut-out plywood and "rafting" my sleeping bag each morning.  Never occurred to me to look for any manufactured dates.
