jonsey2001 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Greetings, I have a Japanese summer Tunic and pants. Pic coming soon. I am interested to know why there is only one loop on the left hand side under the arm pit a little higher than the waist above the pleat. Very interesting to me. I cannot seem to find good images. This uniform was in a USMC sea bag that is full of 782 gear etc. I missed out on the katana. Also any interest in seeing some Japanese ordinance for assistance with identifying and a flag? I will post if there is interest. Many thanks! George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsey2001 Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 I forgot to mention I have a signed Arisaka rifle sling this particular Marine was on Iwo and Siapan. If there interest in seeing this it is very fragile but I am willing to take a couple pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonsey2001 Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 Now the pre war rifle, last ditch bayonet I will take pics of the sling later in the weekend. It would be fantastic to find out if the sling is unit marked or named. Bayonet is neat as well. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogi Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 In the first pic of the tunic, mostly military weapons (like the Zero) I've seen marked in this manner, not exactly sure what this might be, but I don't do a lot of uniforms Can you post a full picture of the items in the first post? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsey2001 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 Here are full pics of the tunic. Any ideas as to type? Thanks, George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichiban2006 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Standard tropical type 98 army field tunic. The loop is to hold the bayonet in place and hold the belt up. Edited January 12, 2014 by ichiban2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghp95134 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 The flag is named to Kanemura Okiue金村興植 I'm not 100% certain about the given name's pronunciation "Okiue". --Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
