No dated isn't the problem, ... but the missing date on DoD memos and correspondence is typically a stamped date because the actual signature and date of release of correspondence is never certain. So the date is stamped on when correspondence is actually signed by a clerk or admin assistant in the office, copies made, and distribution execution. The 'fake' is also missing the 'distribution' for the memo...typically a list of commands or commanders to whom the memo will be distributed.
The Service Chiefs and JCS don't send memos to the 'field' to each individual service member. They send it to MACOMS who inform the troops.
