Thanks for the posting. I'll add them to the database. The casting dates
seem weird for the early ones. (My 111XXX block has 12-16.) It looks like
they used MA blocks that were laying around or they were casting blocks in
anticipation of winning the 1/4-ton contract.

If you see a 46XXXX block with a 8-19 casting date, let me know!
