Re: Tetauzo Iwamoto

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 |

Re: 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, Michael |

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