milspec, his name was changed because the board lists "S-H-I-T" as a banned word. This was also the case when Legionaire typed the word "D-I-C-K-I-E-S", it was changed to "Thingy". Pretty funny, huh?
I've been to the West Point museum in 1993. Tagal na no? Unfortunately, I was fresh-of-the-boat at the time. Yung mga kasama ko wasn't interested in military history. Minamadali nila ako and they didn't even have the patience to take pictures! Grrr...kailangang makabalik ako dyan.

Greetings Gentlemen, I found a couple of more interesting items at the West Point museum On 2 Sept 1945 Gen Tomoyuki Y a m a s h i ta who commanded the japanese troops in the Philippines surrendered his forces and this sword. Gen. Tomoyuki Y a m a s h i t a's Samurai sword. The sword was made by Fujiwara Kanenaga between 1640 and 1680, and as is customary with most japanese swords was remounted in the 29th century.  milspec |
