Written by KOJIMA Misao, to his mates at the Aomori Marine Products Testing Lab in Aomori city.

I can't make out all of it. He is talking about the hot weather where he his, and it says he is doing fine.

The censor's marks just mean that the contents were checked, and they passed the censor's approval. (No doubt it passed because he's just talking about the weather and nothing sensitive).

Postcard is a 2 sen postcard (1937-1945). Postmark is August 15, 1942.

Is there any indication of where he was from the postmark? There are two censor marks one on the front and one in the rear ? Is it possible to know who the censor was or the censor type? Many thanks for the information

The post mark is from the Hirosaki post office in Aomori.
The censor's stamp on the front is maybe from someone named Kodaka (小高). On the back (the side with the letter) there is a stamp from someone named Takahashi (高橋).
