I have this old document in my collection, I think is a Meiji era (maybe Russo-Japanese war), could someone translate it? (no neccesary a perfect translation, just to know date and what is wrote in the doc), thank you!!
Awarded to a Sergeant of artillery in the Imperial Japanese Army, April 1, 1904 for service in the Russo-Japanese war. During this war the medal was awarded to 109,600 men. The certificate also indicates he was to receive an annual pension of 100 yen.
His family name is Yamashita. I'll let somebody else tell you the first name. I'm terrible at reading first names.
