Is it possible to see the date of last firmware install

Question

As the subject states, is it possible to find when the last firmware upgrade was installed? We've been having a lot of quirky issues along with VPN performance issues and I'm trying to determine if they coincide with each other. I've looked around in the CLI and can't find anything and was thinking it might be possible through the advanced shell.

I just did a search in the log using the current FW version.

The admin part of the log shows the last firmware change including date and time.
It's not the "installation" or upload date and time but time the version of the FW became active.

Hi Nathan Johnson , 
 Thank you for reaching out to the Community! 
 From the Advanced Shell, run the following command: grep -i "BOOT_IMAGE" /log/syslog.log 
 You will see the following log lines: 
 Sep 17 13:08:39 (none) user.notice kernel: [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=17_5_11_661 quiet ZD=30 SM=0 ro console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400n8 console=ttyS0,9600n8 Sep 21 09:29:28 (none) user.info kernel: [ 0.000000] Command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=17_5_14_714 zd=/dev/sda ro ro quiet console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400n8 
 The above log lines show that firmware from 17.5 MR11 to 17.5 MR14 was updated on September 21th. 
 When you update the firmware on the firewall, it auto reboots with the new firmware. It is logged under syslog. 
 Thanks,
