Starting from the right side column (these are always read right to left) your tag says:

 

12034 = code number for the 30th Division Medical Unit (the division's code name is 豹 "Hyou")

Officially it looks like this: 12034

 

Center column: 60 (usually a company number 1 to 4 so 60 has another meaning, not uncommon)

 

Left side column: "Ban" (abbreviation for bango = number) 78, in his company's records this soldier is #78.

 

The 30th Division served on Leyte, the Philippines and fought at Kabacan April 22, 1945 so a nice tag!

 

Cheers, Rod
