Mail Being
Urged

V-Mail letter forms are now
available in every community and
ON every rural mail route in the
nation, the War Department an
nounces.
Since V-Mail the fast new SER
vices for dispatch of mail to and
from American forces overseas
was instituted two months ago, the
Post Office Department has been
distributing the letter forms. and
they are now available at each Of
the $4,000 post officers in the coun
try, as well as from rural carriers,
without charge.
The Army Postal Service urges
that all persons writing to men,
hars CT the armed forces outside
the United States use V-Mail, as it
is now not only the most expedi-
tious service possible, but saves
vitality needed cargo space, since
this type of mail is much lighter
than regular mail.
V-Mail facilities have been estah
lished at points of emharkation in
this country as well as in the
United Kingdom, the Hawaiian Is.
lands, Australia and the Near East
and is being rapidly expanded to
many other points. In other areas
overseas, where VMail facilities
have not yet been installed. it is
sent in its original form, being
flown when ever planes arc avail
able.
