Emperor Hirohito visits an Officer's Training School in Japan during World War II

Motorcade of Imperial limousines with motorcycle escorts proceeds through gates of an officer's training base in Japan, during World War 2. Emperor Hirohito, on a white horse, is accompanied by other mounted military officers as he rides past officer candidates drawn up in formation. The emperor salutes the candidates. A number of officer candidates in white uniforms, and steel helmets, carrying rifles, demonstrate their skills running through an obstacle course, including a high barrier that must be scaled, as senior officers watch. Several candidates demonstrate gymnastic skills, performing giant swings on horizontal bars. The emperor stands alone, observing, as other candidates perform stunts across various barriers.
