The celebrity that belonged to the division
I belong to the division artillery, and late Shichihei Yamamoto who is a few survivors writes down the event in the 103rd division in the details for an officer (including "Imperial Army which a set grade officer looked" at). In a very frank and logical stroke of the pen, I show the fact of the old military to in the life. The personal criticism of the commanding officer (killed in action before H major, the end of the war) and the divisional commander (in M lieutenant general, postwar period, I meet again at a flag officer camp) is interesting, too.
