The 34th Division (第34 師団 Dai-sanjuyon Shidan was an infantry division in the Imperial Japanese Army . Its call sign was the Camellia Division (椿兵団 Tsubaki Heidan .
History
The Japanese Imperial Army 34th Division was raised as a triangular division on 2 July 1939 in Osaka . Its manpower came primarily from Osaka and Wakayama prefecture . It was intended as a garrison force to maintain public order and to cover police duties in Japanese-occupied portions of central China , primarily around the Wuhan area under control of the Japanese 11th Army .
In December 1939, it was transferred to Nanchang , the capital of Jiangxi province, where it served as a garrison force. In 1940, it participated in the Battle of Zaoyang-Yichang . Along with the rest of the Japanese 11th Army, it was assigned to Operation Ichi-go , but as more of a reserve and garrison unit to consolidate and control territorial gains made during that operation, rather than as a front-line combat division. As part of the 20th Army it was involved in the Battle of West Hunan .
It ended the war outside of Jiujiang , on the southern shores of the Yangtze River in northwest Jiangxi Province.
