Overview

Factors of the success of the old age are not only useless in a new era, but also harmful.

Until the Edo period in Japan, the Japanese sword was a useful weapon.

However, in the days since the Meiji period, that weapon was of little use.

Certainly in the spirit, courage may have appeared when soldiers are attaching

a Japanese sword to their waist. But for that reason it became insensitive

to the advancement of the gun and continued to use the gun established

in 188 as the 38 type infantry gun until the defeat of the Pacific War in 1964.

The US soldier had a new gun with an automatic loading mechanism

using gas pressure at launch, M1 Garland, during the war.
