Private Snafu in "Censored", war film from 1944

Animation for the Department of Defense about censoring mail. Sounds like Mel Blanc doing the voices.

NSFW for the pin-ups at 2:50 ;-)

When my dad got shipped out, he had set up a code beforehand.

The first letter of first letter home would tell his younger brother where he was headed.

Started with the word "I."

So Uncle Vic knew he was going to India.

That's interesting. My father told me my grandfather would do something along the same lines. He was a chaplain in the South Pacific and would give clues to where he was, for example by asking about their neighbors with the black dog. That family's name was Marshall so they knew he was in the Marshall Islands.

Honestly I don't understand why people would be so determined to tell their loved ones which rock they might be dying on. It's not like they could do anything with that information and meanwhile it could threaten operational security.
