Re: Tetauzo Iwamoto

Quote:
One fellow wrote that Iwamoto's 216+16sh kills are rather "attacks" than shootdowns.
They can also be viewed as "victories" in the same sense as used in WW1, ie. he defeated 216 planes and they conceded the airspace to him.


That Tetsuzō Iwamoto's autobiographical book "8 years of air battle : Zero shoot down King" ISBN: 9,784,769,820,505 has not been translated to English yet is disappointing
