I collected these information from different sources. According to
Wikipedia, BC 35-- (eg. Gen. San Yu) started in January 1946, and BC
36-- (Eg. Gen. Tin Oo) started in Feb. 1946. BC 51-- started in
December 1947 (maybe a little earlier than this). I presume that BC
40-- must be started between 1946 and 1947. This is my assumption. If
you have more information, I would appreciate your contribution in
this regard.

These information are collected from "Building the Tatmadaw: Myanmar Army Forces since 1948" by Maung Aung Myoe (Appendices) and The Working People's Daily, 1991 February.

I had tried to find the information on Than Pe, Brig. Gen. Tommy Cliff, Col. Saw Shi Sho etc., but couldn't find it. If you know of their information, I would be more than happy to share with others.
