Do not know what topic they fall under, but came upon 2 rising sun flags that my father brought back at the end of WW2 (he was a career army officer).  One has a notation in the upper corner near one of the 2 leather triangles that the flag was flown, written, with his name, by a colonel in the 158 Regimental Combat Team, my fathers unit.  They both have the typical signatures radiating out from the sun and the better condition one has a number of other signatures filled in where there was room.   The more tattered one looks like it might have seen some action.  Anyway, just seemed interesting, since they have some family provenance.  Found them when visiting my sister cross-country; she is sending them to me since i forgot to load them in my luggage, so will have pictures sometime soon, if anyone is interested in seeing photos.

 

yours,
