    Japanese Items Help...What Do I Have??

    I found these badges and paper at a local estate sale. I know the vet served in the PTO during WWII and was also in the US Army during the Korean War. Can anyone tell me what I have here? I am not familiar with Japanese or Korean items.
    Sorry about the photo quality.
    Thank you,
    Devin

        Wings dated 1940 on reverse; might be civil anti-aircraft badge? Looks like a winged cannon to me.

        1940

        Rooster: Korean Judo Participation Medal:
        Front:
        Too fuzzy to read (and it's ancient seal-script)

        Reverse
        Large center kanji:
        優賞
        Yūshō
        Victory

        Around the periphery I can make out:
        朝鮮柔道奬*會
        Chōsen Jūdō ? * Kai
        Korean Jūdō ?? Association
