JapanX Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 Well, this "late" type 4.1 looks exactly like "early" type 4.1 to me. January 20 is not late enought?! In that case we have another type 4.1 badge that was issued on November 30, 1945. After the war!!! Badge number 66914! Issued to Private 1st Class Kuwahara Susumu
JapanX Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 Looks like silver to me... Same superb quality... No "cheap alloy" in sight
JapanX Posted June 20, 2013 Author Posted June 20, 2013 Another very interesting after war badge in blue enamel with design based on military merit badge Box
JapanX Posted June 20, 2013 Author Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) Another interesting buckle issued in commemoration of 2nd Japanese Wounded Association National Convention, Showa 28 (1953) October in Kyoto city Edited June 21, 2013 by JapanX
kaguyahime Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Another very interesting after war badge in blue enamel with design based on military merit badge Box Very nice comlete set! If I am not mistaken, there is also the same badge but in green enamel .
JapanX Posted June 21, 2013 Author Posted June 21, 2013 If I am not mistaken, there is also the same badge but in green enamel Do you mean another wounded association badge or its prototype - military merit badge? If the former then all badges (that I saw) have blue enamel. If we are talking about the prototype then the color of the enamel should be red

JapanX Posted June 21, 2013 Author Posted June 21, 2013 I mean not the red enamel prototype, but another wounded association badge in green colour. In this case can you post it in this thread?
kaguyahime Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 In this case can you post it in this thread? I'll do my best.
