Field post office
A Field Post Office (FPO) is a post office set up during time of war or when a military unit is on manoeuvres. It is set up 'in the field', hence the name, however, FPOs may be on land or at sea. Their use pre-dates the introduction of postage stamps.
== History ==
FPOs have a long history. The first British FPO was in 1808 during the Peninsular War and in 1840 the British Army used a FPO during the first Chinese War.〔(History of the BFPO )〕
FPOs were also used extensively during the Crimean War.〔(British Postal Museum & Archive Crimea FPO cancellations 1854-57. )〕
