Translation Requests

Thanks Taki,
This is the first page of the article showing the title for you. Let me know if you want me to send you the other pages and if you need higher resolution.

[Akira Takizawa]

Aha, I know this article. So, no need to send scans.

Taki,
Would you be interested in translating three sections of this article- "Last landing at Lae" on Page 145, "Supply to units that crossed the Saruwaget" on Page 146 and "War service of I-38 submarine" on Page 147? If you can do this then I will send you a copy of my book on the war in New Guinea "Hell's Battlefield".
You can also contact me on email at [email protected].
Thanks again for your help,
Phil

No, I am not interested in translating.

Can anyone translate this name? I believe the family name is KONNO, but I can't seem to get the first name. He's an IJN officer, perhaps a Special Duty officer. TIA for any help!

金野千三

[ijnfleetadmiral]

Have another name...another IJN officer that might be a Special Duty Officer. Family name is WAKABAYASHI, but again, I can't get the first name. TIA for any help!

Here are two hand stamps on a Japanese Military Money Order - I am sorry that the first character is badly over inked and may make it untranslatable

"Sen Ka" - I don't know the meaning.

Thank you vary much Taki-san

[Wellgunde]

Stu - If you know the origin and destination of the money order it might provide some clue to the meaning of "sen ka."

[stulev]

The origin was Balikpapan in Netherlands East Indies and destination Hsinchu Formosa in June 1942 or Sorong in Netherlands New Guinea also to Hsinchu Formosa in December 1943 -- These are quite scares as the Post Office was suppose to keep for accounting - but it appears the Hsinchu Formosa Post Office was raided and files were taken

[Wellgunde]

It might be an abbreviation of 戦争地域から (SENsou chiki KAra)(from war area) or something similar, but that's a SWAG. I've looked at the same postal handbooks that you have and there doesn't seem to be any info on this.
