80-CF-836-21-40278:  V-Mail, February 23, 1943.  American troops everywhere have more mail.  The easiest, fastest, and best way to send it to them is to use V-Mail.  Your letters are then microfilmed, flown overseas, and distributed in a much shorter time than they would be if you used regular mail.  By using V-Mail when writing to Americans on the fighting fronts, you not only save time in transportation, but you also free vital cargo space on merchant ships.  Shown:  The first V-Mail letter from Pacific Fleet from Admiral Chester W. Nimitz to Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox.   U.S. Navy Photograph, now in the collections of the National Archives.  (2016/05/03).
