    Japanese written by a non-Japanese. Like a Tommy or GI copying some kanji.

    What is crudely written is:
    口歩五六
    Mouth Inf. 56
    I don't know what he was copying when he wrote "mouth."

    昭和十九年
    Showa 19 Year [1944]

    I do not know if this is a real war-time flag that has been dollied-up, or if it is a modern flag dollied-up.

      Hi,
      I usually stay away from these flags but this one I had to have because it was taken
      by the Dorset Regt 2nd Division Rangoon XIV Army during operation Dracula.They
      put a date on it of May 1945 and some other writing that has faded but is still legible
      Thanks
