Imperial Japanese Navy Paratroopers[edit]

Hello, in order to keep consistency throughout the articles about IJN units I would like to change the name of this article to "Imperial Japanese Navy Paratroopers".

As can be seen in Category:Imperial_Japanese_Navy there are already similar designations:

There is no Yokosuka 2nd Para unit[edit]

Hi there,

the article says (status 11/17/2016) that there was a Yokosuka 2nd SNLF. According to my sources (Osprey Japanese Paratroopers, direct correspondance with Akira Takizawa, author of the book) there has never been a para-unit or para-training for the Yokosuka 2nd SNLF. The Yokosuka 2nd SNLF had been a regular SNLF unit. If someone has other sources or proofs I'm going to take this information out of the article 7 days from now. Thank you, Cheers, --Chris.w.braun (talk) 15:41, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Replacing the article image[edit]

The so-called badge of the Naval Paratroopers is a fictional item and not correct. It should be replaced with a proper image. It doesn't seem like the IJN paratroopers had any symbol or motif, so perhaps a period photo of some paratroopers would suffice? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adachi1939 (talk • contribs) 05:27, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
