Hope you're not too disappointed:

1st one
Isamu 勇1308 = 2nd Engineer Regiment, 2nd Division
Division in Java, Sumatra and on Guadalcanal 1942, Burma 1944

2nd one
Asa 朝2054 = 6th Company, 79th Infantry Regiment, 20th Division
A Korean division in New Guinea 1943-5

3rd one
Hyou 豹12023 = 7th Company, 41st Infantry Regiment, 30th Division
Leyte, the Philippines 1944-5
Back (I think)
威18485 = 3rd Company, 9th Air Intelligence Unit

4th one
Teru 照7757 = 2nd Battalion Headquarters, 15th Infantry Regiment, 14th Division
Too bad it’s not the 3rd Battalion, which was on Peleliu. In the Paulus Is. anyway.

5th one
Yama 山3474 = 22nd Infantry Regiment, 24th Division
Okinawa 1945

6th one
Maybe the 110th Artillery (battalion, company?) redesignated from the 1st Battalion, 23rd Field Artillery troops? Don’t really know.

7th one
Kaki 垣6558 = 8th Battery, 22nd Field Artillery Regiment, 16th Division
Philippines on the Bicol Peninsula in 1941 and Leyte 1944-5

Cheers!

Would the 3rd tag with the seperate unit info on back and X'ed out be a reissue tag from another soldier or was this soldier in that old unit and transfered with new unit info on the other side

Since the crossed out portion of the tag states: (2nd Div.) 2nd Reserve Engineer Company, I would imagine the same guy had his tag updated, but there might be other scenarios that are equally plausible.

Great looking tag, btw, love that patina.
