It is not his name, it is his position. It reads "Daitaicho" which means Battalion Commander. A "Daitai" was the unit which was between a company (Chutai) and a regiment (Rentai) in size. He has a nice rack of medals.
Arrgh! Of course, you're right, mea culpa!
After knowing the reading, it's so easy to find out the right kanji...
Thanks and best regards,

Paul,
Sorry, I can't use (yet) the PM option on my account.
But I'll order your book from Amazon.
Anyway, thanks a lot!

Gents,
A friend of mine offers me a Japanese decoration. I assume, that this is kind of fire fighter award?
I only can read the second and the third line:
(2nd line) "12th October Showa 31 (1955)"
(3rd line) "2nd General Meeting of national fire brigade"
Can anybody help me with the first line and the two kanji?
As well, further information about this award would be great!
Thanks in advance and regards,
FWolf

Hi Chris!
So you make an effort.
I'm sure, you won't regret this step. Any finally, you can get in touch with all guys by yourself and don't need my assistance
Enjoy,
