Content: | This item is a letter sent by Colonel MATSUMOTO to Vice Admiral IRIFUNE on 12 April 1946. The letter conveys MATSUMOTO's apology for becoming drunk after the memorial ceremony for the war dead, and discusses dental treatment and repatriation. It also discusses a problem with SUMIYA, which IRIFUNE apparently mentioned in his previous letter to MATSUMOTO. MATSUMOTO insists that there has not been any problem with SUMIYA. |
