Hi All,

Would like to know something about Unit 6018 六〇一八部隊.

I couldn't find anything about this unit on Google.

So any info welcome.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Hi Nick-san,

Thank you for the info.

I saw this tobacco case, which I'm kind of interested.

I have 6018 down for the 1st Field Searchlight Company/18th Army. Last location for this unit was Eastern New Guinea. This number had two code kanji attached from what I have: "Manshu" and "Mo"

Slightly unrelated, but is there a book or list online that one could purchase that has all the Japanese unit designation codes and the corresponding units?

Cheers
