      After flip over the second flag, the Kanji wordings ( with the Chinese meaning) are shown in this picture. I have no idea what this flag is all about. Perhaps the flag to remember those who serve/build the country.

        That's the back of the flag (the writing is all backwards that way)
        But it says 建國奉仕隊 Kenkoku Hōshіtai, which is some patriotic organization.

        This museum has the same flag on display http://www.nishi.or.jp/homepage/kyod...i/13/13.htm#11

        It's probably a crow
