WWII/Postwar Era V-Mail Airmail Envelope, Ross Moon (11th Airborne, APO 468) to Miss Marianne Sammiet, Richmond, California, February 1947
A wartime/postwar airmail envelope from the personal correspondence of U.S. Army airborne serviceman Ross Moon to Marianne Sammiet of Richmond, California, postmarked February 1947. Routed through APO 468 via San Francisco, this letter reflects the vast personal mail network that connected American servicemen stationed abroad — likely during the postwar occupation of Japan — with family and loved ones on the home front.
