"Japanese General Mori -Commander of Manchuria Garrison" 1931

Prevailing image of Kwantung Army is one in 1941, at the height of its power. But in 1931, it had very few men. An infantry division plus 6 independent infantry battalions, authorized by treaty at maximum 16,500. Lt.Gen.Mori Muraji (森連, 1876-1937) was the commander of 独立守備隊 independent garrison, the group of 6 battalions, Aug 1930-Aug 1932. Retired in 1934.

Blowing up flotation device?

Some sort of water bottle device possibly. Inflatable devices don't tend to have such long tubes. Just guessing mind

Hi Luftflotte2,
I think the boat on the right is RO-500 ex U-511.
Cheers Steve E.

[Luftflotte2]

You are right. I was confused because it has Ro-54 written on the hull but Ro-500 on the tower.
