From time to time, previously unseen items could be discovered. In late 1944 and early 1945, before the civil censorship service in Dalmatia was established, mail was censored by military authorities. Until now, only the following military censors were known: No. 1 - Sinj, No. 3 - Split, No. 10 - Dubrovnik, and No. 13 - Knin. A new discovery adds No. 7, found on a letter sent from Trpanj...​

Letter, free of charge for a military person, sent from Trpanj (1.XII.44) to Dubrovnik (5/12), censored by military censor "★ VOJNA / CENZURA 7" and initial. This is the only known example of this censorship cachet.
