You are trying to get an emotional response from me I.E. Anger.

I'm trying to suggest something. But alright, do whatever with it. Just make sure you don't expose it to sunlight.

No it isn't.

im pretty sure the top of the word points towards the red dot, thus making it upside down

When I put that into Google Translate it says it is Chinese. Would that be on a WW2 Japanese Flag?

looks actually pretty cool. hope you find out what it means.

I'm here on a retainer, so let's get to work.

It's a list of names, from what I can read. From left to right on the legible kanji:

Sesikei : I cannot write this kanji in my IME because that kanji is so ancient it isn't even supported by windows. What this kanji means is "honesty", but I believe it means "oracle" in this case. Someone probably earned the nickname "Sesikei" by his troop or unit and signed the flag as such.

三上清喜 Mikami Seiki

正(cannot read)若人 Masa(...) Wakoto

志度雅夫 Shido Masao

The rest is ancient kanji and/or completely unreadable to me. まほ～
