CPO Version
There is an engraving on the top of the body in the roman alphabets "CPO"; or in Japanese katakana. This abbreviation means Central Purchase Office which existed in Japan during the occupation period. CPO was the section where occupation forces supplied necessities. I heard that the goods for the soldiers of the American occupation forces were tax-free, so the engraving indicated if the item was for CPO or not.(to stop the illegal sales) |
