Here is the rare China Incident Commemorative Medal. According to Peterson, it was awarded 'to
those who made outstanding contributions to the war in China, but who were not eligible for the
China Incident War Medal. As this medal is practically unknown in Japan [not true], and almost
anyone could be eligible for the war medal, it seems probable that this was intended as a reward
for Chinese collaborators.'
Established in 1942.
Bronze.
OBVERSE: Cherry blossoms and Imperial mum crest.
REVERSE: Inscribed 'China Incident Commemorative Medal.'
The ribbon (and presumably the case, if any) is the same as that of the common medal. However,
this medal has no suspension bar or attached bar.
