Manchurian Flag page 3
| Manchukuo national flag. Inscribed 'Discharge Commemorative, Harbin Air Corp Regiment, Nagahara Kouzou.' The city 'Harbin' is written in kanji here, which is uncommon (no doubt because of the difficulty of the characters). Harbin is, of course, in Manchuria. |
| Very rare Manchukuo War Flag/Naval ensign design. Note that though it resembles the Manchukuo national flag, the colored stripes extend across the field. Click here for the different kinds of Manchukuo flags. Inscribed 'Discharge Commemorative, 32nd Infantry.' Also a name in cursive script that I cannot read. |
| Inscribed 'Manchuria Dispatch, 49th Infantry, Victorious Return Commemorative.' |
| One of the more uncommon soldier designs. Inscribed 'Manchurian Incident, Victorious Return Commemorative.' |
Inscribed 'Manchurian Incident 63rd Infantry, Victorious Return Commemorative.' |
Inscribed 'Manchurian Incident 63rd Infantry, Victorious Return Commemorative.' |
Inscribed 'Manchurian Incident 40th Infantry, Victorious Return Commemorative.' |
Inscribed '40th Infantry, Victorious Return Commemorative.' |
| Manchukuo flag design with the Manchuria Rail Defense insignia above. Inscribed: 'North Manchuria, Heihe, Independent Defense Unit.' The slogan/poem on either side of the flags says something like 'You have defended the independent economic rights of Manchuria and Mongolia, now go back to your hometown and greet the spring.' Rare to see this area name on a cup. Heihe is on the Russian/Chinese border near the Russian town of Blagoveshchensk. |
| Note how the stripes on the Manchukuo flag extend to the edge. This is actually the Manchukuo Naval Ensign flag. Inscribed: 'Victorious Return, Discharge Commemorative, 32nd Infantry.' |
