The American army was the last to leave Germany, but finding mail from occupying forces is difficult. This is a post card home from Corporal Archie Wilcox, serving in a Third Army artillery battery. As with most Soldier's Mail, it has a censor's rubber stamp and initials, and it's ratty. I do not know why most Army of Occupation mail is in worn condition, maybe from being passed from hand to hand.
