General Yumomi?

[VJK]

Hi Peter,

The 3rd Division wasn't commanded by a Prince during 1919-1920:

15 Feb 1915 - 25 Nov 1919: General Jiro Oba
25 Nov 1919 - 5 May 1921: General Shinnosuke Kikuchi

I attach your pic but with the frame and writing, hopefully one of our Japanese language experts will be able to identify him. I'm still working on your General Yumomi.

Best regards,

VJK

Thanks VJK.

Some ebay sellers have the best intentions in describing their photos but misguiding captions appear a lot.

Commanding generals at Vladivostock. Sorry, for the size. Maybe someone else has a bigger version of it?
