The upper document is a note which seems to have been written by Lt. Gen. Miyashita at Sanbongi (in Aomori prefecture) in Oct. of 1945 (directly after the end of WWII). It describes that he gave his Gen. Badge to Lt. Co. Shultz (?) in remembrance of their friendship. There was the 157th Army Division in Sanbongi, and Lt. Gen. Miyashita was the commander of the division.

 

The lower document seems to be farewell words to a sergeant major Chaen (reading?) at his departure (to attack?) given by his colleague and younger colleagues.
