Japanese Showa Era Daito WW II GI Bring Back Samurai Uchigatana Sword
This beautiful Japanese Samurai Sword was issued to a Japanese officer who served in the Philippines during World War II. It was brought back by Lieutenant William R. Bussey in 1946. Lieutenant Bussey was an Air Traffic Controller with the 5th Air Force at heavy bomber airfields supporting the Philippine Campaign. This sword is very historic and collectible. The sword is representative of a mid level Japanese officer’s status of rank.
The Shōwa era or Modern Showa refers to the period of Japanese history corresponding to the reign of Emperor Shōwa (Hirohito) from December 25, 1926, until his death on January 7, 1989.
