Re: Sgt Fuji - 68th Sentai

Nick Millman mentions in Osprey's Ki-61 and Ki-100 Aces that from 2 October 1943 the 68th Sentai started flying Oscars left behind by the 24th Sentai (page 23).

A bit further down that page is a description of the air battle by 2Lt Haniotis (who claimed a Zeke). His victim indeed appears to have been the 68th Sentai's Sgt Maj Jakichi Fuji (after claiming three P-47s earlier that day).
