hello elmat, masako probably meant that her kin togo was the lead on meeting the russian baltic sea fleet which was sent in as reinforcement to the far east.
looking up dusty books in musty archives, i find that togo was success in keeping the appointment in the tsushima strait (between korea and japan), and in the battle of tsushima, may 27–28, 1905, togo's fleet sent all eight of the russian battleships to the maker as scrap.
today will be event filled, some work, reflexology, a bunch of bills, data archive, my new year's letter, then a party ... the usual, looting, taunting, thinking, and scheming :0)
prosperity be with you, jay |
