the description to this medals were unfortunately just in Chinese, the one on the right must be the Order of the Blue Sky and White Sun.

I like the design of the cases!

I went by the memorial hall today. There were no guards around, so I got all the time I want to take the pictures (there were volunteers actually). There were a lot of Japanese and ,I think, Mainland tourists.

The Blue Sky and White Sun medals were moved to the Presidential building. I asked about them lol

Actually, both Blue Sky and White Sun orders are in the National Armed Forces Museum in Taipei. The breast badge and the sash are very damaged... there are even pieces of blue enamel around the yellow silk cloth. Some larger blue fragments are just placed on top of the areas where it suppose to be blue.
