Japanese Generals & Admirals portraits
It's very difficult to find the portraits of Japanese Generals & Admirals of WWII on the net.
If any masters in AHF can advise any useful websites or books?
Thanks in advance.

Jon

Re: Japanese Generals & Admirals portraits
Wikipedia has numerous pics of Japanese officers. Are there any IJN officers in particular you're looking for? I have quite a few pics in my files.

Hi,
I too have a fairly good database of Generals, if you are looking for anyone in particular, please post your list.

Re: Japanese Generals & Admirals portraits
Thanks ijnfleetadmiral & VJK for your prompt replies.
Actually I have picked up a very long list of names of generals & admirals (3341 names) those who fully or partly attended the WWII, but 80% of them are lack of pictures/portraits.
Can I paste my list by initials in seperate threads under this topic? Hope that won't bother too much.

Re: Japanese Generals & Admirals portraits
Hi ijnfleetadmiral,
Checked with my databse find that except for Admirals, I have only 5%-6% of Vice Admirals & Rear Admirals with pictures and others' are missing.
Maybe you can start another thread posting the pictures you have just like that ones of IJA.
Re: Japanese Generals & Admirals portraits
According to IJN admirals in 2010 a guidebook was published, although only in Japanese, but it contains biographies of all the admirals of the imperial navy. https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E6%97%A5%E6%9 ... 4569775519
This book is a profile of naval officers born at the time.
A total of 1,665 admirals were named as admirals. A total of 77 admirals, 492 vice admirals, and 1,096 rear admirals.
