HSS! Happy Easter Everyone!

I have an uncle who was a marine during ww2 who fought in the pacific. This is a Japanese flag that he brought home, it has a few names written on it from some of the men that he served with. The names on the flag are:

 

Charles F Blanbo from Washington DC ( I think that's what the last name is, its kinda fuzzy)

 

Harold L Bachelor from Portland Oregon

 

Wm Roberts from Brookville Indiana

 

Frank Trusky from Akron Ohio

 

James E. Day from Huntsville Alaska

 

Douglas P. Searbrough from Monterey Tennessee

 

Harlan Bunnilk from Rockford Minnesota

 

John L. England from Jacksonville Texas

 

and my uncle Charles Fortney

 

I'm still trying to get more information like the unit he was in and if my uncle can remember where he got the flag from. He gave this to me about 25 or 30 years ago, it's been at my parents house till I asked them to send it to me.

The mountains were flagging snow this evening as weather conditions begin to deteriorate as the next major snowstorm gets organized to hit Colorado on Tuesday - two major snowstorms in three days.

The flag of Spain, officially recognized as the national emblem, is one of the most important symbols of the country. It is composed of three horizontal stripes: a red one at the top, a yellow one (gualda) in the center and another red one at the bottom.

視線沿著協和大道到聖彼得教堂, 很難不被右方的國旗所吸引, 這是國旗唯一在歐洲大陸飄揚的地方

 

It is difficult not to be attracted to the flag in the right side along the Via della Conciliazione to St. Peter's Basilica, which is the only national flag of Taiwan fluttering in Europe

The flag is a tricolour (green, white and pink) and was created in 1843.

This country lost autonomy in 1917 and after a referendum now is Canadian.

Terranova (in inglese: Newfoundland, in francese: Terre-Neuve; in gaelico canadese: Talamh an Èisg; in micmac: Ktaqmkuk)

Una curiosità e un mistero: i Micmac, o meglio i Mi'kmaq, (nativi americani presenti a Terranova) avevano una scrittura simile ai geroglifici egiziani !

Thimphu, Bhutan

In Bhutan, government and Buddhism go hand in hand. This is one of the country's primary government buildings, formerly a fortress, and houses a Buddhist temple and monk housing. You might note that the monks precede the flag and the soldiers...

Flag Rock is located above 3200 feet in elevation, and is located three miles above the town of Norton, Virginia on High Knob. In the 1920's, a German immigrant by the name of George Matuszczyk placed an American flag on this outcropping of rock as a symbol of his love for his new home. The Flag Rock Recreation Area was dedicated in 1974 and opened in the summer of 1976.

These flags are spreading love and wisdom.

 

Negative scan from 6x6, probably Ilford FP4+, shot by Hasselblad 500 c/m with 80mm Planar.

A hero shot - one that I doubted about posting without significant masking (that lightpost - bugs me). But then, I thought: why fake it? It's what it is.

 

So here: a "hero shot" of flags.

 

Now, whose flags are they? Take a closer look? The one in the middle looks familiar...
