Statement of Nakamura (30 June - 2 July 1947) Adjutant Section: Lt. Col. Inosuke Jin was "Kokyu" adjutant, kept records regarding Officers, was senior adjutant and in charge of whole adjutants section. If the matter concerned the adjutants section it would have gone from Jin to Akita and then up. All matters of any Importance passed through Fukushima's office, who was Jin's Immediate superior. Goiyama was not of high enough rank to order Americans to University. Such would have to come from the Staff Seotion, probably the Chief of Staff or vice Chief of Staff and it would then have to go to the adjutant's section, through either Jin or Kusumoto, since adjutant's office made all the arrangements after execution, of administration details and plans requested by Staff Section. In this ease Goiyama was probably given orders by Kusumoto or Jin. Kusumoto and Jin kept the secret correspondence files and the main files , of headquarters. Kusumoto and Minami worked quite independently in own section, but Jin was in charge and got informed as to both offices. |
