I recently purchased a Japanese Hinomaru Yosegaki Flag that I have little history on. The flag is in very bad condition and it is amazing it has survived. I'm working on preserving the flag right now and was hoping someone could help translate this priceless piece of history. I was curious if there were any other slogans on the flag or anything else important or interesting. Here's what I have so far:
義勇奉公 (giyuhouko = courage and service)
贈杉浦隆市君(zou sugiura ryuichi kun = gifted to Mr Sugiura, Ryuichi)
Thank you,
--Joel
