The challanges of CM 6
Morning Team
Your 'Daily' dose of WWI censorship today is 'Some thoughts on CM6'
I show a cover from FPO 110 during Security phase V,
If my understanding is clear, such an FPO would serve the 4 Brigade Battalions, a Machine Gun Co, A Trench Mortar Company, A Field Ambulance, and possibly Ammunition and Supply Companies, So at least 7 different censors for each security swap, From security phase IV when CM 6 was introduced to post 1 Feb 1919 when Units received their original date stamps back this gives a total of 28 possible combinations. So far I record 5 different examples for this FPO.
