The cancel on this stamp reads "HADTAP-POSTAHIVATAL". "Postahivatal" is "post office" in Hungarian, but I haven't been able find the meaning of "hadtap". Can anyone help, please?
The meaning of "hadtáp postahivatalok" is "Army Post Office". I have found it in "Bányász Péter - A tábori postaszolgálat szerepe a harctéri morál fenntartásában. A tábori postaszolgálatok története a XX. század els#337; felében (The Military Postal Service's role in maintaining morale in the battlefield. The Military history of Postal Services in the first half of the twentieth century). And then used some deepl-Kung-Fu...
Other designations were also explained within the text: A kezelési szolgálat ellátására a következ#337;k voltak hivatottak: a) tábori f#337;postahivatalok; b) tábori postavezet#337;ségek; c) tábori postahivatalok; d) hadtáp postahivatalok. (The following were responsible for the handling service: a) General Post Offices; b) General Post Offices; c) General Post Offices; d) Army Post Offices.)
This was almost easier to figure out than some of your weekly puzzling picture riddles.
