At the initiative of Colonel Göhring, Army Group Eprepared parcel stamps for issue in May 1944 without the approval of the ArmyPostmaster. For this purpose, Italian military postage stamps for Ionian Islandsoverprinted by "PM" were used and these weregiven a five-line overprint of so...ldier / parcel / swastika / front / home.These stamps should replace the "duty-free monthly mailing" stickers.
After the OKW (High Command of the Wehrmacht) haddeclared the inadmissibility of these planned marks in the Army Ordinance Gazette, these marks remained unspent. Nevertheless, a few copies came onto the market, and documents/soldier mails with stamped stamps have also become known. Overprinted (PRIVATE OVERPRINT)"SOLDATEN PACKCHEN - FRONT HEIMAT"
