Paul L Murphy Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 This certificate is to Senior Cavalry Private Kastumura and is dated 1st April 1906. This means it is an award for the Russo Japanese War. Now that you have started on the slippery slope of collecting Japanese certificates there are loads more for you to get !
