    Another note to his son Kazuo:

    Is Kazuo san healthy? You probably danced at the festival with Hiko-san.
    It looks like I've slimmed down already, but in Malay that is a year round.
    Now, daddy's willow house is on top of a small mountain. The mornings are a bit too chilly in comparison.

    Bye-bye.

      Interesting to note. It seems this postcard was mailed before the first one posted as it shows the 7th Area Army - “Oka” 岡 over 10903 not the 29th Army - “Tei” 定.

          Hi beretta,

          Thought you may be interested, it seems Daddy got around.

          The 12th Independent Defense Unit (including 43rd Independent Infantry Defense Battalion - 10903) was formed under 25th Army Tomi 富, in Sumatra (code numbers 10900-99 distributed to the 25th Army in April 1945), it went to the 7th Area Army “Oka” 岡, finally to the 29th Army “Tei” 定 in Malaya.
