Dear All,
May I summarize the details and ask some intersting (for me interesting) questions?
The sword was took by Mr. Tokugawa to Police station at Dec. 1945
18.01.1946 Let's called "Bimore" took them away.
19.01.1946 It was reported to Commander of Metropolitan Police
28.01.1946 Policeman was sent to 7th Cavallry (got an answer the swords has to be examined after all swords were collected and transfered there.)
09.02.1946 Experts asked to make inquire on the swords
14.02.1946 All the swords collected by Police stations transferred through the Metro Police Board to the 7th Cavallry.
What means through Metro Police Board is? It is the headquarters of Metro Police? Or, mean the body of the MP. I understand well, that all sword which collected at police stations were transferred to this Board, and together finally transferred to 7th Cavallry HQ?
In that case the 3 swords had to land firstly at this Board, and stayed there from 18.01.1946 to 14.02.1946?
If somebody took over the swords at HQ, I am sure made a registry what and how much took over. An inventory. Would be helpfull to find the receiving inventory of the 7th Cavallry HQ. (As I know HQ was at at the Japanese Imperial Merchant Marine Academy. No any document left there in the basement?)
When the experts made the sword classification I am sure they made also a list about the NT&IAO swords. Could have any list?
Other remark:
The US investigation everywhere dated this story at Dec.1946/Jan.1947:
One year later than it was. Based on this, I am not surprised that they did not found anything.
Thank You if you clear me these.
