Censorship by US authorities who used chemicals to detect hidden messages. Note that POW mail was entitled to free franking under the Geneva convention but the sender uprated it with a stamp to airmail. Sent about 30 days before Germany's surrender on may 8, 1945 it may have arrived right before the war ended or just after. No german censorship markings so likely the latter. Scarce item.
