IJA

proper noun

abbreviation, initialism Initialism of Imperial Japanese Army, the army of Imperial Japan, predecessor of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, usually in reference to WWII. The Japanese, with their respect for hierarchy, while compelling all the lower ranks to work, made no such demands on the officers, who stayed in [the POW] camp and, bizarrely, were paid by the IJA a minuscule salary.
