On -2.JUNI 1942 the higher 4- and police leader Prague Postal supply of troops The postal supply of the troop units in Böhmen and Moravia had originally been transferred to the Deutsche Dienstpost Böhme-Mähren. In the course of time the resulting postal traffic was transferred to a considerable part to the Böhmisch-Mrährische Post. This condition was brought about by the fact that the troops in Bohemia and Moravia no longer received field post numbers, but were transferred to the open address. The result is that on the part of the Offices and Offices in the Keichs-Postgebiet, but in particular on the side of the German railway stations, which sort the shipments not by consignees, but by places of destination, the consignments intended for the troops are no longer eliminated, but are derived in large numbers to the Böhmisch-Mährische Post. In addition, a part of the letter post is provided with private addresses (sentations in apartments of officers, Wehrmacht officials, Wehnmacht authorities from the Protectorate), so that they must be handed over to the Böhmish Moravian Post for service, since the German service post cannot carry out a service. A considerable part of the field mail also comes into the hands of the Böhmisch-Mährische Post, since the cancellation of the messages by the mailbox and at the counters of the Bohemian-Moravian post offices cannot be prevented by soldiers. The circumstances described have led to a juxtaposition between the German Service Post of Bohemia and the Böhmisch-Märische Post and to uncertainties in the management of postal shipments to Bohemia and Moravia.
