I don't remember seeing this on the board, but I thought it might be worth a mention.
"Mike" Kawato died on 17DEC01 at the age of 76 up here in Washington. He is the Japanese fighter pilot that is generally credited with shooting down Pappy Boyington (depends on who you ask and believe). Regardless of his being on the other side, the truth about the shoot down and possibly his war record, Mike was a neat guy.
