Description
A WW2 Japanese Army textbook put together by Japan's Ministry of the Army.It was published June 1941 and was originally owned by soldier named Shoji Wakamura.
It has everything a Japanese soldier should know. There are a LOT of pull out sheets. A lot of photos. Many maps. Too many for us to show them all. We have the 12 photos above and we've added a few below.
The color pullouts of all of Japan's Army and Navy ranks as well as all their medals are good enough to be framed by themselves.
The book is all together but the binding is a little loose. Shoji Wakamura's name is hand written on the back. The last photo os of Japan's Imperial flag. (photo # 11 above) The photo in the book before that (photo # 10) is of Yasukuni Shrine. Japan's military shrine to their war dead.
Many Japanese soldiers before they were going to attack and knowing they were probably not coming back would say to their fellow soldiers. "I'll meet you at Yasukuni"
As a historical reference this is an excellent source.
We've added a few more photos here.
