Has anyone watched the Timewatch: Hirohito documentary? There's a few Japanese songs that I'd like to know the title of.

Around the 9 minute mark, when the narration says "In the summer of 1937, with nationalism now at fever pitch..." the music playing is called 'The Marching Song' 進軍の歌 by Junji Tsuji. It was the A side of a record that came out in 1937, which 'The Encampment Song' 露営の歌 as its B side. 'The Encampment Song' quickly became the more popular of the two.
