Chapter Sixteen
The winds of Paradise are blowing. Where are you who hanker after Paradise?
Motto of the Ikhwan
As a soldier I will fulfill my duties brilliantly. I die with a smile on my face with the deep belief that to meet my end on the kamikaze battleship Yamato is the ultimate honor.
Chief Petty Officer Yoshiaki Ogasawara Mikoto
