Hi Ingo,

FPO TX was allocated to the 1st Canadian Division Train in France, they arrived in January 1915 and this date stamp I have recorded used from early February.

I have CM3/1276 recorded from AK's material (Dec 1915) with this stamp. The censoring officer was Lt Col M Cradock CBE CMG, 2nd Regt, King Edward's Horse.
