    Covers of a Japanese Close Combat manual

    Hi all,

    I hope to get more shots of this little book at some point after I get a scanner. But I wanted to post these in the hopes that someone could translate. I'm hoping it's the name of the original owner

    As soon as I can do scans I'll try to see about borrowing the book for a day or so and doing scans. But just in going through it that day it showed combat with small arms, bayonets, swords as well as what appeared to be training for Kendo.

    Hi Paul,

    Many thanks to Mamiko for the translation and you, Paul, for the post. :beer: I deeply appreciate the info. :D Another warrior's name is now known and not lost to time. I will pass this on to the museum, if will be in my report and will now be remembered by all who see the book.

    Thank you both sooooo much! :cheers:

    Dan
