I'm confused by this cover. It is a wedding invitation to a wedding in Kabul; has a U.S. postmark and the language on the stamp is a mixture of French and Afghan. Any thoughts on how this might have originated?
Diplomatic pouch. The cover originated with someone at the US embassy in Kabul; it was transported by pouch back to the US and placed in the mails. The auxiliary marking is indicative of that sort of treatment.
