@Bakuninmeow If it's okay with you i'll post the youtube link on my IJA forum :) my reenactor friends would love this. No, thank you :)

[Bakuninmeow]

@Hardrada88 Please do! It's very flattering to me and my work that you would think of doing so, and, yes, am being self-centred in saying this, I always appreciate any chance for my work being seen by as many eyes as possible. So, go right ahead, and thank you so very much!

Learned this song as a child, from the other Air Force Brats who had Japanese Mothers....

Old poem about the discovery of gold in a province of Japan circa 880 AD...

"If I go by sea, water will cover my bones..."

Thanks for posting this, as a gun collector and model builder I have learned several languages and cultures in the process. One has to do this if you want to understand the artifacts....My favorite is the Ni Shi (Two-Type) Paratrooper Rifle..

@vonmazur1 Sorry for the lateness of this reply, but thank you for your comments and for the information on the poem. Both are very much appreciated here, and, again, sorry for the late reply to your comment!

Great video--I like "Umi Yukaba"--a good rendition of it is also in the film Tora Tora Tora, but you have the original recording here! Nice photo montage, too. I think a few images of IJN carriers and Japanese aviators would make it even more well-rounded. It's a good compilation in any case--thanks for posting it!

[Bakuninmeow]

Thank you very kindly, galoon, for your comments about my video, and the original music accompaning it!

A bunch of murderers, fancy effetes and psychopaths = Japan in a Nutshell. Or should I say, Japan in ashes and bombdust?
