FPHS Member Peter Stockton shows what must be a unique display related to the Gardes de Voies et Communicatios (G.V.C.) in France during WW1. He explains the G.V.C formation in 1887 and then changes made both to the use of manpower, explaining the size of the GVC and their organisational structure prior to WW1. Postal history displayed demonstrates arrangements for free post, it's authorisation and carriage of mail of the French railway network.
