Tetauzo Iwamoto

Yes, that's a pity.
Whereas there are some different sources about Nishizawas score, I have never heard about another source about Iwamoto's score than himself
(214+26sh) and the assessment of Hata, Izawa & Shores (80). Have any wartime authorities ever mentioned his tally ?
The score suggested by himself is not WW1 standard because it was not officially confirmed by his commanding officers, was it ?

Have a nice evening,

...I mean: was the reduction of Tetsuzo Iwamoto's score from 216+26sh to ca.80 by Hata, Izawa & Shores arbitary ?

...is it known how many of Iwamoto's kills were scored over Asia and how many over Australia&Oceania ?
