Nice photo with NCO sword worn

[Papa Nambu]

Just got this nice wedding photo of a Japanese Sergeant Major with his bride. A nice photo to begin with, but as a bonus, since this is a studio photo it was focused just right, and our groom seems rather proud of his sword and wanted to make sure it was in the photo. With a magnifying glass I can actually see the stamps on the hilt clear enough to make out the Kokura logo.

Interesting to see he has his boots removed for the picture.
