HERE'S A STORY ABOUT  A LETTER MOLE SENT HOME IN WWII 21. The Fooled Censors Before D-Day during the Second World War, the families of the American troops never had the slightest idea of what part of England they were in because the generals didn't want the Nazis to know. All of the mail was censored. My uncle Mole, however, was able to trick the censors and the Germans with his letter to his wife in which he revealed his whereabouts. My grandmother wrote me a letter in which she said the following: May 12, 1999 Dear Tom, When you can, ask you father if he knows how your uncle Mole told Aunt Marjorie where he was before D-Day. Where I grew up, we always shared letters from members of the family and friends, but Marjorie never shared letters after Mole had gone to England and she was living with me and your grandfather. One day, Marjorie received a V-mail from Mole and was angrily storming around. “How could Mole tell the Cornwalls where he is and not me?” “The Cornwalls?” I said. “Marjorie, Mole hasn't told them anything. He's telling you where he is. Let me see exactly what he wrote.” I read the V-mail. Your uncle had written the following: Iris's parents could tell you where I am. I'm reminded of summers with Dad. “Marjorie,” I said. “Go get the atlas and look at the map of England and the county of Cornwall.” There on the south coast was Cornwall. “When we used to go to Wood's Hole in the summer,” I told her, “and Mole's father was the director of the invertebrate course, Falmouth was the closest town. Look here. Mole is in the city of Falmouth in the county of Cornwall. Your husband was very clever to have told you where he was in a way that the Nazis never could have understood. It seems he has fooled the censors as well.”                 Much Love,                 Grandma Here is some of  the letter. The rest I have somewhere. I heard that Margaret threw out every letter she ever received.
