I have two of these stretchers, I can not date them . The one with the US and snake I bought around 1999,2000, the other with the US DLA numbers a few years ago. Great for camping ( bed) and around the house for guests. Only one has markings, an Orthopedic company, the other none I can find. I suspect the one with the Medical snake Vietnam era, the other modern, 80’s, 90’s.? Any ideas?

DLA120-80-C-4450 is a 1980 contract date, so that one will not be any older than 1980.  The contract was likely for a fixed number of stretchers, and it was made in 1980.  Some contracts run for several years.  If that is the case, it could have been made up to several years later than 1980.

Thank you. Any ideas or guesses on the other one( with the medical insignia) ? The handles are different, canvas coloring different.
