One of the documents in Lt Warde's IDPF is the
Appendix to the Report of Recovery by Team 4.

This document is in Page 3 and raises some questions.

____________________________

Three remains were brought to a Japanese Army Hospital in Chiba.

In the Appendix is the word Kokuritsu.

This is a term and not a specific location.

Based on Japanese terminolgy from Google:

Kyoritsu : private hospital
The current Chiba University Hospital
was once known as Kyoritsu Hospital.

Kokuritsu: national, government, military .

I have been unable to determine the location of the
Kokuritsu Hospital.
