WWII Imperial Japanese Navy Mr Segawa Signed Flag From Director Of Ship Building Yokosuka. Raw silk body with a red sewn silk sun in the center. Roughly translated it reads SOLDIER DISPATCHED BY GOD CAPTAIN TAMESABURO SEGAWA LOYALTY AND PATRIOTISM THE MEANING OF LOYALTY AND PATRIOTISM IS TO BE LOYAL TO ONE'S COUNTRY AND TO REPAY THE FAVORS RECIEVED FROM THE COUNTRY DIRECTOR OF SHIPBUILDING YOKOSUKA NAVAL FACTORY. My translator made a note that says THIS FLAG MAY NOT HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO A SOLDIER GOING TO WAR BUT MAY HAVE BEEN WRITTEN FOR THE PURPOSE OF PRAYING FOR THIS NAVAL COLONEL IT DOES NOT HAVE THE USUAL INSCRIPTION AND NAMES. Has been folded but still in great shape. PPR
