WWII Expeditionary Force Message (E.F.M.) telegram receipt used
by US forces in France.
The messages were transmitted via the French PT (
Postes, Télégraphes, Téléphones) and
the fee was paid with a French stamp, usually a 25F Château
de Chenonceaux which was printed specifically for E.F.M.
This document is postmarked US ARMY POSTAL SERVICE APO 516 – 1
MAR 1945. This APO was located in Rouen, France. The
message was controlled by censor and the receipt received the censor
marks, in this case two of them. The E.F.M. was then transmitted
to Paris and bears a date stamp CENTRAL-RADIO -
PARIS – 7-3-45.
