I have two Good Luck flags my father brought home from WWII. I would appreciate help translating them.
Photos are attached. There are two flags, with three photos of each -- full size, then each half for a closer view.
The flags are probably from the Philippines since he spent the most time there, but he was also in New Guinea and some smaller islands.
I'm aware of the Obon Society, which tries to return Good Luck flags to the soldier's descendants if they can locate any. If there are identifiable names on the flags I'm considering sending them for return. Does that seem like a good idea?
Thanks for any help.
