FPO 856, February 1945?

[Nick Colley]

Hi, folks,

As you can see from the attached, I have a naval tombstone censor on a cover postmarked FPO 856 in February 1945. Proud confines himself to 'BLA' for this FPO. Can anyone fine-tune this attribution to a more specific location? If so, I would be most grateful if you can share it! :-)

If anyone can decipher the signature on the censor, that would be another approach I could take, but I fear it defeats me.

Many thanks!

All the best for 2023.

Nick

I have no idea why the damned attachment failed to load.
