The Tsūshōgō was the unit code name used by Imperial Japanese Army during World War II. The Tsūshōgō was the combination of Heidan-Mojifu and Tūshō-Bangō . Heidan-Mojifu was the kanji code assigned for every division, independent brigade and other larger unit. Each Heidan-Mojifu usually consisted of one kanji, but some units established in the last stages of the war had two-characters codes. Unmobilized units were assigned area codes, such as 東部 (Tōbu, 'east area of Japan').
