I like to watch documentary programs on World War II.

While hearing Youtube's National Geographic sound, I walk, drive a car and, clean my room.

-----

In the scene to interview a former soldier in the United States, the following phage appears frequently.

"I am proud that I belonged to the 203rd air battalion"

-----

It seems that there is nothing to be issued by the former soldiers who belonged to the former army, military, and air forces of the Empire of Japan.

I think that such ideas do not exist in Japanese, that telling of what I belong to an organization as my pride

Or, such ideas may exist(for example, a prominent university from where you come from). But I do not think there are few people who profess it.

Even more, Yet, I have never seen a Japanese who uses the phrase "I'm proud to belong to an organization" since now.

-----

This is a hypothesis,

We think Japanese people think that it is bad to express "belonging to organization".

We are afraid that we can be seen as "company slogan", "deceased personality" or "totalitarian".

Simply speaking, we have to think that "every organization" should be "our enemies".

-----

One example of verification of this hypothesis is "Bounenkai(year-end party)".

"The organization to which I belong, the director is kind, my boss is on a break, my colleagues help me work, and my subordinates understand the work quickly, I am the best happiest. "

If there is a guy who is talking words like saying, everyone will knock them out of the drinking party venue.

"Go back! Our party is going to be spoiled !!

with shouting.

Although the story may be different, if you belonged "an organization that is involved in the crisis of your own life" like an army.
