The cover shown has APO 723 address so presumably the recipient is going to Greece where at some point he has become a PoW as per cachets.

Can any one tell me what the "G.M." mark is an abbreviation for and also the G.H.Q. 0.2.E. M.E.F. No 4 in the boxed cachet means. I can work out the GHQ and MEF bits, but not the 02E and No 4.

Hi Jim,


Would G.M. not be the initials of the person at O.2.E that checked their records and then applied the redirected and Reported POW cachets.
