Vintage Japanese Soldier Portrait Photograph

This is a vintage Showa-era young soldier portrait photograph in a soft sepia tone. Often portraits of soldiers were taken before deployment as a keepsake for the family should they not return home. This young man may also have had his portrait taken for any number of jobs (like for a police officer).
