Bought this from a picker its a original WWII Japanese Military Forces Hand Book dated Sept 15, 1944. This is the much sought after smaller version that could be carried around. It is an original war time issued all inclusive book on Japanese forces, weapons, tactics, vehicles, insignia, etc. The fiber cover is held together with a draw string that looks like a shoe lace. The book is complete and has a few pages that have pulled outward from the twin holes to hold it in the book and the few pages are tattered on the end. Great reading and a lot to learn from it. Condition very good ++
