Regis - BRITISH FLEET MAIL 12 was located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Source: "The Postal History of the Naval & R.A.F. Postal Services" by Edward B Proud.
Published by Postal History Publishing Co (this was Proud's publishing company) 1992.
Proud records it used 7 Apr 45 - 4 Dec 45 in that location.
However, I have a record of 8 Mar 45 (by the late Alistair Kennedy) and a later date of 27 Feb 46 from HMNZS Achilles at Hong Kong, but posted in Australia (my collection)
The datestamp was proofed on 15 September 1944.
