Wives for the Wounded
Japan’s armed invasion of China in July 1937 catalyzed the creation of new welfare services for the rapidly escalating number of Japanese disabled veterans. Among those reforms was the emergence of public and private marriage mediation services that aimed to introduce potential brides to disabled veterans and create independent households for men with severe war injuries. Acting through the Greater Japan Disabled Veterans Association and Patrioti…

Writing in accessible, plain English and basing their conclusions on materials written in multiple languages, including Dutch, French, and Ja…

Casualties of History
Thousands of wounded servicemen returned to Japan following the escalation of Japanese military aggression in China in July 1937.

He maps the terrain of Japanese mil…
