S.W.A.K. on the back of a letter c. 1942

S.W.A.L.K. was a World War II postal acronym usually seen on a letter sent back home from the frontline. It stands for "sealed with a loving kiss" and is one of several acronyms that seemingly originated during the Second World War. A variant is S.W.A.K., sealed with a kiss.[1]
