United Nations - UNIFIL - Lebanon

United Nations postcards issued in the Lebanon for peacekeeping forces of UNIFIL. These postcards were posted by an Irish peacekeeper to Co. Cork, Ireland and have no postage stamps because UN forces on UN missions are recognised as being on "Active Service" so they are allowed free franking. Dated UN cachets are used as datestamps.
