"A few years before I retired at the end of 2011, they went to the YYYY/MO/DD or today’s date would be 20130628."

I did not know that. We just had either the abbreviated date: 28JUN13

The full date: 28 June 2013

Or a standard DTG: 16:55 28JUN13

Most forms were fully online or automated when I retired and the programs would tell you “Incorrect date format” if you input the wrong data. Just look up some online forms. There are still some old forms that use other formats, but most of those are legal or medical forms.
