OK, thank you so much. I am so new to this type of research. I guess I need to find sites that tell me about the soldiers' flags, their purpose, why they had them, how long they carried them, how American soldiers obtained them, etc.
Did every Japanese soldier that went to war have one, etc...
How can I find out more about this flag? We found it in my mother's belongings, this past Fall, after she died.
None of us four children even knew it existed.
I have a museum interested in it, if I can find out more.
Thanks!!!
