Labels / Stamps On Back? Belgium? Identification, Or Any Ideas. Please .

Very interesting and fully informative. But, on the postmar date I read "11/VI/1946", which is June 11th 1946.

Letter sent to a regiment in the BAOR . (British Army Of the Rhine) 1946

The labels with 25 ,19 look like censor labels.

Thanks to all ...

This was sent to a soldier in B Company of the 1st (Jewish) Battalion of the Palestine Regiment.

Elements of the battalion were deployed in Germany as part of the BAOR until mid-1946.

Interesting cover , Would fit nice into a collection of W.W. II military covers.

They look like rationing coupons with the date on them being the end of validity.

So, a correct answer to a question isn't allowed unless if it is identified truthfully as AI generated but is OK if credit to the source isn't given?

The issue is when AI is wrong. We identified the issue long ago on the coin forum.

AI is very frequently flat-out wrong. If it gets pasted here, then that's another vote for being right and reinforces the wrong answer with AI. All the AI bots crawl here constantly.

Also, there is just no way I'm going to let members just answer posts with pasted AI. That just encourages the destruction of any forum that allows it altogether. I won't let it happen.

Please understand when I say, this is not up for debate.

I understand what your saying Bobby. In fact, the first AI answer was wrong and I knew it was wrong. I let the machine know it was wrong and it came up with the right answer (I always verify). Some questions will go unanswered It is a great tool for finding things much faster than the days I have put into finding answers without using it and those answers could also have issues since I am relying on the work of others only without AI. The info is all the same, just arrived at by different means and at different speeds.

No more AI.

Thank you.

Not sure what A.I. is ........But I like to have that cover it tells me a little about the British advances into Germany .

The war in Europe ended 9 May 1945. This cover is from the occupation of Germany by the allies, a year after the end of the war..

Just FYI, my friend sent me this today: These are Belgian savings/tax receipt labels (ephemera/Cinderella labels), specifically issued with a printed control date of 11-5-1946 (May 11, 1946).

Key Details & Characteristics:

Function & Type: Non-postage revenue/savings seals. They were used within Belgium for official record-keeping, savings programs (such as postal savings books or state administration receipts), or local duty/fee verifications rather than for paying postal rates.
Denominations Shown: Blue ornate labels in denominations of 25 and 19.
Date Stamp: The vertical margin on each label displays the standardized imprint 11·5·1946.
Placement on Cover: Because they are placed on the reverse flap of the cover near the handwritten Belgian destination address (Elsdonk Edegem, Belgie), they were likely applied by the sender or local office as decorative closures, registration/fee receipts, or personal collection attachments rather than official postal franking.
