I haven’t posted here much, but I thought I would share my most recent find. Pictured is a soldier’s 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. I’m 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 couldn’t 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.
