Help to ID Large WW2 Japanese Navy Flag from Battle of Kwajalein

[GIZMO8Z]

A very interesting flag! Very nice that it comes with the photo to prove that it's a period piece.

Can't wait to hear more about it!

I'd say Neil is onto something there..I thought some form of signal corp flag..

Hi Kozjan,

It's a pretty fair size, isn't it? I couldn't stand the suspense so posted my question on the JVA's Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/j.vexillology [see "Recent Posts by Others" and look for my name, Guy Power.]

And please, don't anybody laugh at my Japanese grammar!!!!

Did you ever hear back from JVA about my flag? I thought I would have got
more feedback about it. Thanks.

Sorry, but no. All they ever said was "never saw one like that before ... I'll research." Oh well.

On the Large size to be a Signal Flag, I'm thinking.

Still no answer about the flag. HOWEVER at WAF someone has posted a link to an Australian-owned flag that falls in the same ballpark.

I don't know if this image will survive long -- it's from ebay.au


陸軍 Rikugun = Army
