crassus 0 Posted September 17, 2005 I would have thought any vestiges of the Japanese Empire, in this case the "Rising Sun" flag, would be in disuse, even forbidden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tovarish 0 Posted September 18, 2005 http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/jp%5E.htmlIt seems to be used as the naval ensign. If you look closer at the edges of the flag in the picture (and the position of the sun, dead centre in the flag), and at the examples in your link, it's actually the Ground Self Defence Forces flag.

chops 111 Posted September 19, 2005 I would have thought any vestiges of the Japanese Empire, in this case the "Rising Sun" flag, would be in disuse, even forbidden. I don't want to go off topic here, BUT I live in Japan and I can tell you that the Japanese Empire is alive and well. Most people here have no idea at all what happened in WW2.

seminara 4 Posted September 19, 2005 Off topic but sadly correct. Their school curriculum does not highlight the many attrocities committed by their troops (ie. Nanking, brutality towards POWs, etc). Never has and probably never will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harnu 0 Posted September 20, 2005 What do you have against robin reservist and his jolly band of mechanized jaegers? It's robin's cousin peter I'm more worried about.
