manayunkman Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I met Mrs Levine one day while she was walking her dog. Dog walkers always seem to have militaria. She invited me over to her house and sold me this small grouping that had belonged to her husband. He had been a guard at the Yamashita trial and took these photos. Link to post Share on other sites
