Well I have a similar flag that my grandpa found while in iwo jima. I had to have it translated by a japanese man who was from that era, but I could check the notes I made of the translation later.

Edit: or somebody else could come along and translate for you

then led me to their lairs

One flew over the cuckoo's nest."
