I wanted to share this IJN kichohinbukuro bag with the forum. One can find IJA valuables bags somewhat frequently online, but I have not seen any IJN bags. This came in a vet. bringback grouping a few years back. It is named and aside from minor soiling, in nice shape.

Probably the first time to see an IJN version, always the IJA that I encounter.
Also in very good condition, congrat!

Thanks Taka!
Kind of one of those "once in a blue moon" incidents--wish there were more of them!

Taka, thank you very much for the translation. I was guessing that the writing was probably from the group/school and names of the individuals who filled these bags to be sent to the soldiers. Thank you for confirming that and for the super translation.
Regards, David.Comment
