This is a nice Japanese military sake bottle, decorated with an embossed pattern of three soldiers carrying a large bomb that's lit on the front towards enemy lines. There's also a wreath on top with a pair of flags. This commemorates the incident of the three "human bomb" soldiers who sacrificed themselves in the fighting in Shanghai in 1932 when there was a stalemate - and they broke through the line thanks to these three soldiers.

The words on the back are "Leaving the service commemoration"

Condition: Mint

Size: 5.75" tall x 2" across
