The rifle looks like a T-38 carbine which were used by cavalry and artillery men. He most likey is Artillery based on the wheels in the photo which probably belong to an artillery piece. The white Dove of peace certainly didn't fit these guys though, Ray
One thing we forget is that the Japnese and German soldeirs were young men that believed in their contries just like ours. Im not justifying what they did but we forget they were human beings. don in fl.
That's true Don, but who ever they were, they weren't bent on peace full intentions, RayQuote:

Ok, Guns= war not Peace. Thats all I was saying. And I won't get into the diferences between our "boys" and their "boys" behavior while doing their "duty" during the war. Have we forgotten history already. Ray
Unfotunately their national policy was even more racist than the NAZI. They believed in the ultimate superiority of the Yamato Race.Quote:

Every nation Japane occupied and every prisoner they took was brutely treated, tortured and killed. Not so with any other allied nation. That is the difference. In the fighting, to win you have to fight fire with fire. Nice picture of Japanese soldier and rifle. riceone
