Commemorative photographic album of the Japanese Imperial Army's 1923 training exercise in the foot hills of Mt Fuji. A fold-out chart of the infantry deployment training plan in two colours (52 x 38.5cm) is included. The same location is still used today by the Japanese Self Defence Forces for training exercises.

The album begins with photographs of the Imperial viewing point and a portrait of the main commanders, including Generals Akiyama Yoshifuru and Ugaki Kazunari. The album offers comprehensive photographic images of the weapons, equipment defence structures and troop deployment of the Japanese Army in the 1920s. Includes images of airships, biplanes, artillery, tanks, carrier pigeons, gas masks, trench structures, military railway, and medical units.
The album offers an interesting insight into the state of the Japanese Imperial Army soon after the close of World War I.
