Description
[Machine Translation] In 1950, after the defeat in the Pacific War, the Police Reserve Corps was established with the outbreak of the Korean War, and in 1952 it was reorganized into the Security Forces, and in 1954 the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force was born. In the beginning, most of the equipment was provided by the U.S. Army, and tanks (special vehicles) such as the M4 Sherman medium tank and M24 Chafee light tank, which were sworn enemies of the former Japanese Army, were used. This book contains many photographs of U.S. tanks provided to the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, including M4 medium tanks, M24 light tanks, and M41 Walker Bulldog light tanks, with detailed explanations, mainly based on rare and unpublished photographs collected by the author. From exercises to parades, the book is packed with valuable photos of U.S.-provided tanks and SDF personnel in action, as well as the atmosphere of the 1945-1950s, shortly after the end of the war. This book is a must-see not only for SDF fans, but also for fans of U.S. tanks and the former Japanese Army.
