Japanese ID book from Papua New Guinea

Hello all,

I havent posted here much, but I thought I would share my most recent find. Pictured is a soldiers guntay techo that was sent back to Japan after his death in Lae New Guinea. His name was Suganuma Shinji and he was a Senior Private serving on an anti-aircraft gun crew. It appears that he was killed on March 3rd of 1943 due to an aircraft strafing his position. His records clearly states where and how he was killed. Im under the impression that Pacific War ID books are very rare and not many survived. I found this at a local Japanese flea market and I couldnt believe it when I realized where it was from. The grouping also includes all of his medals and some death certificates. I would love some professional opinions on it and further translations if able.

The story of a Panzer General’s radio installation

Panzer Generals rode into battle using a Sd.Kfz.251/3 IV "Kommandofunkwagen" which contained the FU11SE100 and FU12SE80 radio sets. I created a document documenting the story of a radio frame from such a vehicle dug up on Hill 112 in Normandy. Research indicates that the rack most likely came from the command vehicle of the most senior panzer General in the battle of Normandy, Geyr von Schweppenburg. His vehicles were destroyed during the famous air raid on his HQ at la Caine, the location of which was discovered due to an Enigma decrypt by Bletchley Park. This remarkable story can be downloaded from FunksammerMilitaria.com in the Publications & Guides section.
