Interesting anecdote. Tojo put on such a commanding display at Tsushima, it's a shame for the IJN that they didn't try a similarly bold strategy at the onset of hostilities with the US.

In both wars, Japan did seize the initiative with a surprise attack, but they managed to press it forward against Russia.

Sort:  

Oh sorry. I should have been more clear. Tojo was the Prime Minister at the time of the war, prior he had been the leader of the Army; he was not Admiral Tojo of the Sutshima.

Ah, thanks for setting me straight. My mistake for the assumption. I had just gotten done reading about Tojo crossing Russia's T again at Tsushima.
