Looking for WWII Japanese and Thai Generals Portraits

#1

Post by Leonard » 31 Jan 2007, 00:20

Does anyone has a portrait of Sogawa, Jiro (十川次郎)? He is the commander of IJA 6th Army in China at the end of the war.

I am also looking for a portrait of Thai Phayap Army commander: Roengrit, Seri.

Thanks for your help!

Maj General Phra PrasartPhitthayayut (Wan Choothin) who had been assigned by PM Plaek Phibunsonggram as Ambassador of Thailand after the Purge of 1939. After visiting Hitler, he had been arrested by Red Army and been sent to the frigidly POW Camp in Suburb of Moscow for 7 Months before being released back to Thailand after the status of War has been terminated on 1 January 1946. He died due to cirrhosis on 4 December 1949 since he was a heavy drinker to the point that he has made his own brewery in the wooden barrels at home.

BTW, Maj General Phra PrasartPhitthayayut (Wan Choothin) has graduated from Army Military Academy of Siam in 1911 after 3 years of study before becoming scholarship student to study in Prussia ... and he was a member of People party (Military faction) that brought 1932 revolution.
