Ive had these for some time, I dont know what the large patch is, but the tabs are for the rank of Army First Lieutenant. The top ones are a pair, while the bottom ones are both for the left side of the collar. It looks like I have the top ones upside down, the single point of the star should be up.

Thanks for looking.

I don't remember the exact name of the patch but it is for some type of a war / factory worker.

Was researching IJA ranks online and found this chart. Brian, I think yours are for a sergeant.
