Translation of Japanese notes on POW card
« on: Monday 03 July 23 17:51 BST (UK) »
Hello, I wonder if anyone could help me translate the notes on the back of this POW card. I do read a little Japanese and have managed to translate the front but I am rather rusty and the handwriting on the back is a little beyond my capabilities these days!
Thanks in advance.

I know absolutely nothing about Japanese.  I wonder if you might do better if you moved your topic to the Other Countries board?

You can request it that it be moved by clicking on the blue Report to Moderator that is on the right hand side at the bottom of the conversation box.

I can appreciate that you are technically in the correct subject forum of Handwriting etc but you have had over 50 views and, to date, no-one appears to be able to assist you.

Up to you as to whether you wish to move your topic or stay where you are.  :)

I had a similar question a year or so ago. I had an answer within hours - I think from Stan Mapstone. If I recall correctly, he posted my image on facebook (which I don’t do) and back came a reply.

Yes, I was going to say, I saw that a similar request was answered here a while ago, hence my posting. If Stan or anyone else can’t help though, am happy to move it to another board.
