1941 - Iceland - Cover
Very unusual incoming cover sent to a British 2nd Lt. in the Worcester Regiment in Iceland “C„ Force in September of 1941. The cover sent from Antiqua (British West Indies) seemingly from a civilian through the Engineering office of the US Airforce Base on the Island of Antiqua. The cover franked with two 10 cent stamps which are only first cancelled in Puerto Rico. The cover censored by the Americans in Antiqua (with an APO 806 censorship handstamp). The Worcester Regiment, which only stayed for a short period of time in Iceland had left Iceland for Great Britain by this time, thus the “Retired UK„ notation in red crayon.
