   	I have volume 1 Showa 126-1938 in hand presently and the   
   San Francisco Public Library has the 3rd volume on order. It is   
   very interesting especially as it is drawn from Mizuki Shigero's life   
   experience.   
   	I presume you are familiar with a "Drifting Life" and "A   
   message for Adolph"? but these are respectively autobiographical   
   manga and WW II and its consequences,
