1944 Mail Sent Via Clipper, Censored Mail, Honolulu Iron Works Co. NY to Hawaii!

Description

Additional Notes: Fine Condition. Via Clipper auxilliary marking. EXAMINED BY 61307. C.A. in 2 Duplex cancels! HONOLULU IRON WORKS was very involved with the US War Department over many years.
In wartime, mail was censored when it was heading to countries that we were enemies with, or were occupied by our enemies. Sometimes, the mail was opened by censors, to make sure there was no information that could hurt or be used against the USA.
The censors returned very few soldiers' letters. They confiscated them; they didn't send them back. They didn't necessarily give the word back to the soldier that his or her letter was withheld. It depended where it was stopped and how fast the troops were moving. From the soldier's perspective, you often didn't know if it was going to get through. The soldiers were all given guidance on what they could say, so you would think they would know how to avoid getting their mail intercepted, but not all did.
