Document Translation assistance

Recommended Posts

I acquired this document at a local military store. The owner of the store had a manila envelope of approx. 20 of the identical documents and had no clue as to 

what they represent. (Nor do I for that matter.) About the only thing I translate is the Showa date of 1940. I was thinking a date of 1940 may possible indicate

it may be a military document of some sort. I mentioned to the store owner, I would present it to the Translation section on the NMB and would hopefully

find out what it is.

 

As always, many thanks in advance,

 

Dave M.

That is an honorable certificate from Army Infantry Major Tahara San’nosuke to an infantry Noma Shimakichi for his excellent result in basic shooting.

 

Thank you Mr. Koichi !

Can we see another certificate? Are they all exactly the same?

 

The certificates I observed in the envelope appeared to me as being all exactly the same, however, as per Mr. Koichi much appreciated explanation, the certificates are identical, but I now suspect on closer inspection the certificates will have each individual soldiers name. I'll check the other certificates when I visit the Military store in the near future.
