This is an original WWII Imperial Japanese Army manual titled "Regulations for Prevention of Infectious Diseases in Military Animals / Army Horse Management Rules, " officially issued by the War Minister Hideki Tojo in 1941 (Showa 16). During the Asia-Pacific War, horses and dogs played a critical role in logistics, communication, and even medical evacuation. Maintaining their health was vital to military operations. This manual outlines disease prevention, quarantine, disinfection, and management protocols for army horses, mules, dogs, and other animals. The document contains detailed regulations, reporting methods, and special charts.

Issued under the authority of Tojo, who later became Prime Minister, this is a rare and authentic artifact from the height of Japan's military expansion. Such manuals are extremely hard to find, especially complete with appendices. This item appeals not only to military collectors, but also to those interested in animal history, veterinary medicine, and WWII logistics. Own a Piece of History.
