    Commander Kyosuke Eto, IJN

    One of the men lost aboard HMS Vanguard was a liason officer from the Imperial Japanese Navy: Commander Kyosuke Eto (written "Ito" in British records of the period). His grandson, Susumu Eto, has generously provided the following information and photographs to honour the memory of his grandfather. "Sam" Eto and his family visited the Orkneys in 1984, and were taken to the site of Vanguard's wreck. Commander Eto was promoted to Captain posthumously.
