Russian term

посылочный фонд

Russian to English Other Military / Defense Commerce
Военным коменданатам собирать брошенное немцами бытовое
имущество и выдавать его частям как посылочный фонд только с
разрешением Военного совета армии, начальников тылов армий
и командиров отдельных корпусов.

The context is not sufficient clear for me to make out exactly what
this is and there are few hits in Google.ru other than this extract
from a 1945 order from the Soviet command in occupied Germany

You got it :-)) Well, some 'smart guys' had sent home German cars and antiques, previously looted by Nazis around the world...My grandpa (one of them) did not make it at all and perished somewhere near Lvov..

transfer into common ownership

According to the context, I think they meant that belongings could only be transferred to common ownership of a unit by authority of corresponding council.
"Посылочный" is probably used here as a synonym for "командировочный"

Not quite correct was I. Belongings of Germans could be distributed among soldiers in order for them to send it back home in parcels, that's what the author means here.
