Military Uniform Store

Does anyone know a Website about Japanese military uniforms?

I just want pictures. Does anyone know a website where I can find Japanese Modern military Uniforms, and Japanese military uniforms from WW2? Any Modern Japanese Military uniform Websites?

2. Check out this website for good pictures: http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-uniforms/japanese.htm If you have a chance to get these books, you should check out the Osprey library of military uniforms and insignia. They have publications detailing the Japanese uniforms of WW2 in a comprehensive and nit-picky fashion. Check out their website--they have many books, including the following: "Japanese Naval Aviation Uniforms and Equipment 1937–45" "This long awaited title provides a fantastic reference resource on the uniforms, dress, flight gear and personal weaponry of the Imperial Japanese Navy airmen of World War II. It includes detailed descriptions of flight gear, including manufacture information, and interviews with IJN pilots such as Sakai, Komachi, Tanimizu, Kawato and Saito regarding the use of a variety of equipment are integrated into the text. Packed with great contemporary illustrations, photographs of original items, and colour pictures, this title provides a meticulously detailed examination of the dress and equipment of the Imperial Japanese Navy's aviators in World War II." While this is specific to Naval airmen, they have others relating to all branches of service for the period. I am not sure if there are publications covering the JASDF (Japanese Self-Defense Force) uniforms and insignia. Some libraries have the Osprey Publications in a special collection or designated area (like the NY Public Library). Check out the link:
