USdog Posted May 28, 2018 Share #1 Posted May 28, 2018 Have you guys ever seen this? I have a bunch of this vets letters and he seems to have censored all of his own mail?? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of censoring mail? Couldn’t he have wrote anything in the letters and passed it himself?

manayunkman Posted May 28, 2018 Share #5 Posted May 28, 2018 General Patton censored his own mail. Everyone of his war time letters (and even some post war ones) have 2 autographs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everforward Posted May 28, 2018 Share #6 Posted May 28, 2018 I have seen lots of mail from the front to home that was self-censored, all officers....the ones I recall were at Battalion level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
