This is the first time I have seen this type of forgery. If this is an old trick please let me know. There are a few things wrong with this from my eyes. Frist, I have never seen a war order document signed. Second, the guys earning these war documents (presumably real) are of too low of rank for an imperial signature. Third, the signatures are not well done.

The defacing of the KIA document is tough to look at (1904-05 war). If someone believes these to be real, then I really want to know. Japanese award documents are difficult to fake and/or forge, but it appears that someone is trying.
