I saw this Japanese book and was wondering what it might be. I do not speak Japanese nor am able to read it, but it looks like it might be a roster of some sort? I'm trying to learn more about WW2 militaria and documents greatly interest me, so naturally this sort of book is in my wheel house of interests.
Analysis:
The war souvenir stamp is also interesting, I have not seen one of those before that look like that. Although I do not know Japanese, some of the sequences of characters look short enough to maybe be names? On some of the blank pages, there appears to be some scribbling, does anyone know what this could be? Maybe a personal annotation by the soldier who wrote in this? Or maybe they ran out of space on the pages with a template for writing, so they started writing on the blank pages? In some sequences of characters, there appears to be some fractions written down, like 2/11, 10/10, if anyone has an idea of what these fractions could be of, please share any thoughts!
In summary, I'm not sure what this could be, seems interesting and I thought it was worth a question about. So, if anyone knows what this is, or has any other input, please feel free to share!
Thanks for taking a look!
