    What equipment is different from IJN to IJA? You tied your helmet differently from IJN to IJA. I would guess tying the helmet would be highly regulated. You kept the hat on when you put on the helmet. Did the hemet have a liner or does the hat act as a makeshift liner?

    The jika-tabi were primarily used as work shoes (e.g. constructing bridges, trenches, fortifications) but were also useful for night combat to make less noise or for city environments for better grip on smooth surfaces. The normal footwear would’ve been the brown leather boots for army and black leather boots for navy.

    Attached to the reserve pouch is an oil bottle for rifle maintenance. As for the number designations, they either use the year of the reign of the current Emperor (e.g. Meiji 45, Showa 5), or the year since the founding of Japan by Emperor Jimmu in 660 BC (e.g. Type 95 = Year 2595).

    I heard people near the Yakusine shrine that were caught talking about IJA atrocities were beated inches of their lifes. These people do not care but everyone was heartless in the forties. Transgender people and BLM were fed to the wolves back then. The world would have been over if people Japanese etc had the weapons they had today. Would have enjoyed killing.
