It has been noted that members of mobile troops, especially in the home war area, are using public mail and thus, and above all, by sending postcards, are promoting enemy intelligence. For this reason it is pointed out once again that when sending mail of any kind, in particular postcards, only the field postal address may be indicated as the sender. In no case may the senders see the belonging to a certain part of the troops. (Ib No. 3427/39 go.) 2.) Danger of interception in telephone conversations. On the basis of an order of the B.d.,E. No. 1O,'39 go, it is given : Despite repeated hints, the danger of listening during telephone calls is not yet sufficiently taken into account by officers.
