Are your monthly paychecks dated in the form yymmdd? Or is it the much less frightening yyyymmdd? Thanks John

My husband got out in May, 1999 and his last check in May was dated 990528 - not exactly encouraging is it? And here we were hoping for a retirement check next 000701. Think we'll get it????

just got out in March/April LES's (Leave-Earning Statements) are dated in the DD-MM-YYYY mode. System was revamped about 3-4 times in my last year of service.

For the ten million and forty-ninth time.........it doesn't make a fiddlers fart of difference what the date reads on the check!!It's whether the systems are remediated to ensure they calculate the time difference between two dates correctly. The actual print-out or read-out of a date is immaterial.

What really makes a difference is whether or not the bank will cash it...
