Takenaga incident

 * ... that when Lieutenant General Hatazō Adachi learned of the Takenaga incident, he shed tears while praying to the emperor?

 * The hook sentence is in the "Aftermath" section, third paragraph. The reference is offline, but I got the book out of the library and verified it myself after translating the article from ja:竹永事件 by User:Snlf1. You can also verify the general facts of the incident in "Volume VII: The Final Campaigns" of Australia in the War of 1939–1945, p. 334. — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 15:08, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the review! On looking at this again, I noticed that Adachi's rank was wrong in the hook, so I've fixed it. (It was wrong in the article before, but I had fixed it a week or so ago.) I don't think this should affect the approval, but pinging you just in case. — Mr. Stradivarius  ♪ talk ♪ 02:52, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
