Paybook 1936-1938
Hello.
I bought this paybook a month ago, but I hadn't had time to post it.
Its owner was a Sergeant Major. Served in the 10th division, 10th Regiment and 10th Company.
Listed he had earned some prizes.
Besides that, it seems he took part in several battles in China.
Any extra information will be welcome.
Thanks in advance.
He was a really good marksman, receiving both the Type 2 and Special badges based on the 1929 marksmanship regulations
Thank you Nick.
Do you know in which is specialist this infantry sergeant major?.
His specialty (特業) was knee mortar 擲筒 and rapid-firing gun 速射砲. A company of 146 men had 9 pcs of Type 89 knee mortars.
Looks like your guy was in both the 39th and 40th Regiments of the 10th Division. He received NCO schooling in late 1937. He then went to 1st Shipping Transport Command and participated in the Swatow Operation in Guangdong Province in June, 1939. Looks like he later went into the hospital for a bit.
